INSTRUCTIONS: How to Review Possible Duplicate Payroll Submission

Gunter Johannes / 15 Apr 2022

Our system has a safety check to identify payrolls with the same start, end and check date to prevent duplicate submissions. If a payroll was already submitted with the same dates, then the payroll is placed in a holding position. The plan sponsor will need to review the payrolls and either click Confirm to keep processing the payroll or Cancel to stop processing the second payroll. This is a safety check to prevent ACHing your account a second time.
