Move overhead labor to direct cost labor for T&M billing

Question

I need to move some overhead labor costs that were miscoded to direct labor costs on a time and material job. Is there a best practice way to do this? If I do a general Journal then run the T&M calculation It requires the employee's name to calculate.

On your next payroll, you can make corrections on the timecard by entering a negative row at the top of the grid with the original date for the time that was NOT job costed, and then job cost it how it should have been. Then put in the rest of your regular payroll and process. This will put the employee and hours where they should be. 
 Option #2: Do the journal entry, then drill into the new job cost record and add the employee and hours and pay type manually to that record.
