Vacation Percentage Correction

When I set up a casual employee in payroll, I forgot to put the percentage amount in for their vacation pay.  We then owed them vacation for two pay periods so, on the next pay period, I entered the correct percentage in the settings and changed them from "calculate vacation on vacation" to "retain vacation" so it would allow me to enter the amount we owed them in the "This Period" section of the vacation pay tab.  This created a negative amount showing in the YTD but I didn't notice this on their pay stub.  I noticed when I printed the report to issue their ROE and it has a negative amount for vacation box 17A.  Can someone please help me?

    Hi Marsha

    So basically, on that cheque you have paid more vacation than what you have accrued right?

    you can you follow Knowledge base article  12726

    basically on the next cheque, just update vacation accrued amount that you have missed (manually, one time)

    Hi Jason, Thank you for trying helping me with this issue. Actually,on that cheque, I paid what vacation pay was owing to date because she had not received any vacation pay on her previous two pay-cheques. That being said, I entered the amount owing in the vacation paid section for this pay period. I believe I should have also entered the amount in the vacation earned for this pay period, am I correct? Also, the employee was only hired to work for a period of 6-8 weeks and she is now finished working therefore there will be no more pay-cheques. So, can I issue a cheque for the remaining vacation pay I owe them and make the adjustments all on the same cheque?

    Regards,
