Hi -

Do you process voids during regular payroll cycles or in a seperate payroll cycle?

We are having issues with PR197 gl-detail. It seems whenever a void or manual check payment is processed within the regular payroll cycle, the cash distributions for some employees do not get created. The account total is correct, but when you sum up the detail records, it is less than the account total. The records are not being written to prdistrib.

HR01 process levels are already setup to create distribs, so our setup is correct.

I'm also looking for some best practice suggestions on when and how to process voids in payroll.

Any feedback would be helpful...Thanks!

Mark--
Most of our voids involve a manual replacement, right after a major payroll cycle has run, so they're often rather solitary. However, we rarely (if ever) have a cycle of JUST voids. Most of the time, they're rolled in with a regular processing. Either way, we haven't noticed any discrepancies. We're version 8.0.3, MSP9.

Thanks,

Thanks for the feedback Geri. We're quite a few versions behind you here. We're on version 8.0.3, MSP6.

I'm one of the lawson admins here, so I'm somewhat ignorant to in depth payroll processing, so please forgive.

Can you explain the process in detail of how you do voids with accompanying manual replacements?

Maybe we're doing something procedurally that isn't correct.
One thing I noticed about the void in question is the original payment date was 7/27/07, but the void date is 08/10/07 with a period end date of 08/18/07. Shouldn't the void date be the same as the original payment date?

Thanks again for your expertise.
