Creating a zero gross manual payment

You can create a zero gross manual payment to reimburse an employee for an over-withheld deduction. Through a zero gross manual payment, you can also increase or decrease taxable wages, as appropriate when reimbursing a deduction originally affecting taxable wages. You can create zero gross manual payment through the Deductions tab on Manual Check (PR80.1).

Examples of zero gross manual payments include:

Reimbursements for over-withheld pre-tax deductions
Reimbursements for over-withheld state or local taxes

Before creating a manual payment, you must reserve manual payment numbers. Reserving manual payment numbers
