Closed period without generating pay stubs

Somehow I managed to close the August pay period without generating pay stubs. How do I fix this? (Community edition if that matters).

TIA

Phil

Go to Payroll -> Payroll Periods, then edit the pay period in question and change the status to Post-Adjustment, then you can process payroll as normal and re-close it.

Well that got me pay stubs for August but the YTD numbers are off. Is there a place to edit them and reprint the stubs?

The YTD amounts should be correct based on all previous pay stubs and cannot be modified. So if they are "off" can you please provide specific details?

It appears that the August payroll amounts were added twice to the YTD numbers

Because the pay period was re-opened and put in Post-Adjustment state, please make sure that you didn't calculate and post-adjustment carry forward amounts as pay stub amendments. You can find these under Payroll -> Pay Stub Amendments, and their description would be something like this: "Adjustment from Pay Period Ending: <Some date in August>".

If those do exist, you will need stop payment on the pay stub transactions associated with the August pay stubs (Payroll -> Pay Stub Transactions), then re-open the pay stubs themselves (Payroll -> Pay Stubs), then delete the pay stubs, delete the pay stub amendments (Payroll -> Pay Stub Amendments), and re-generate the pay stubs again as Normal (In-Cycle) pay stubs, this time ensuring that all the amounts are correct before processing payments or marking them as paid.
