Payroll Journals out of balance

[annefer]

If anyone can point me to the right direction, appreciate your Assistance:

1. We have run our Journal process and have received an Out of balance error message. I have read from Payroll Journal articles that for easy recon, you have to make sure that some entries need to balance. For instance, the net pay should be equal to T1 DA (credit) in the PAyroll Proof. T3 CT (CR) should be equal to T1 CT (DR). If these two equations dont equal, what do I need to do and how do I correct?

Hi
Your understanding is right. Out of balance is a bit tricky. First step is to identify the imbalance doc type (T1, T2) in R05229 report and arrive at the differential amount. Take a dumb of Payroll detailed journal from table and check for this specific amount - There could be duplicate or missing entries and then trace back to originating transaction and AAIa. There are cases when auto deposit instruction is not set up correctly for an employee, net Pay entry in journal is made twice creating an imbalance in T1.
