What is Void or Deleting of Employee Paychecks in QuickBooks Payroll?
When there are some wrong details added to the payroll, a business owner need to fix the employee paycheck.
Based on the processing time and the payroll service, QuickBooks allows businesses to either void or delete a paycheck.
Deleting a paycheck means it removes the particular transaction from the payroll and it can be done even when the pay check is not processed yet.
Void a paycheck means it changes the paycheck records and then updates the paycheck dollar amount to a zero. Voiding a check does not prevent a direct deposit from processing and never returns the funds.

- A duplicate paycheck is created.
