Reverse Payroll Journal on the General Ledger

Reverse Payroll Journal on General Ledger

• Journal Reversal (GRV)
• Payroll Journal (PRJ)

Payroll does not have a PRJ reversal feature so GL journal reversal is required.

To reverse the journal, you first need the Year, Period and Journal Number that you wish to reverse. This can be found through one of the following two ways:

Financials > General Ledger Menu > Journal Entry/History > Journal Inquiry/Print

Search for the Year, Period, and source PRJ, this will narrow down the search to specific payroll journals posted within the period in question.

Financials > General Ledger Menu > Inquiries and Reports > Account Inquiry

Search for the Account where the payroll was posted, select the folder for Actuals, find the detail or amount for that payroll line and the Year, Period, Journal Number will be listed in the left hand columns.

Once you have the Year, Period, and Journal Number, the journal can be reversed using the Journal Reversal program Financials > General Ledger Menu > Journal Entry/History > Journal Reversal. Follow the process documentation if further questions arise.
