Hello there, @DJC76, 

I appreciate you performing the suggested steps to help resolve your concern. I'm here to share some steps to help remove the employees' YTD accrual amounts in your 2019 version. 

You'll need to create a new employee with the same name on each employee you have. This way, all the payroll info will be merged on the new employee. Here's how: 

1. Go to the Employees menu at the top. 
2. Select Employee Center. 
3. Choose New Employee. 
4. Go to the Personal tab.
5. Enter the same full name with your old employee. 
6. Click OK. 
7. Choose Set Up Now. 
8. Review the Federal, State, and Other info. 
9. Click OK. 

You can repeat the process to your other employees. For more information, you can check out this article: Set Up A New Employee. 

Once done, you'll need to download the latest payroll tax table to ensure your payroll has accurate information. Then, recreate the paychecks to see if the 1.54 hours are now removed on the pay stubs.  

Stay in touch with me how it goes after performing the steps above, @DJC76. 

I'll be here to help if there's anything else you need. Have a great day.
