Let me share information and help you to remove your duplicate payroll entries, Julianamh.
Yes, @krushnaakash is right it might be your bank feeds is the wrong account setup as the Payroll Bank account. Also, there were some of possible reasons that you process the payroll twice in a pay period. We can pull up the paycheck list to confirm by following the steps below:
- Go to Payroll menu and then select Employees tab.
- Choose Paycheck list.
- Enter the correct Date range, click Run report.
The other one is that if you downloaded these payroll entries from Banking, you’ll need to exclude them to resolve the issue. However, we must undo them first by following the steps below:
- Go to the Transactions, then Bank transactions.
- Choose the bank account used for payroll, then proceed to the Categorized tab.
- Find the payroll entries and click Undo.
- Go back to the For review section. Find the same transactions, put a checkmark, then select Exclude.
