Edit Payroll Check Dates

Use Edit Payroll Check Dates to maintain the Check Dates and Period End Dates for the Payroll Run.  You must enter the dates separately for each Run Code.  Normally, you are prompted for the dates during Permanent Pay Transfer or the first time you enter payroll checks for a specific Run Code during the pay period.  However, if you need to correct the dates, you can also open this program from a menu.

Tip:  For more information about working with data in fields, see Data Entry Guidelines.
