Payroll earnings posted to wrong account after released and posted

We have CM (Commissions) and RG (Regular Pay) for payroll. CM posts to Salesmen Commission account and RG posts to Salesmen Salary account. 

 

I have 2 paychecks that posted to salesmen salary but should have posted to Salesmen Commission. 

The checks have already been released, posted, and cashed by the employee.

How can correct the 2 paychecks that posted to the wrong account?

Is it a G/L transaction i can do? (reverse the paycheck, then reverse the reverse and fix the accounts that are incorrect?) 

 

Thanks in advance!

@stacy16 you could try using a payroll adjustment. you would specify the amounts you want to take out of the incorrect accounts as a negative value and specify positive amounts for the correct GL account

on the paychecks and adjustments screen you will need to create a new paycheck and change the type to Adjustment, create the lines that need to be adjusted and release:

@iqraharrison Thank you!

I ended up doing a G/L adjustment for this but did then test what you said to do above and it worked! :)

Thank you so much!  :)
