remove director from payroll

I use Reckon Hosted. It has been suggested by my Accountant that I take myself off Payroll as an employee and pay myself by way of drawings. No matter how I amend my payroll data, it WILL not disappear from the report I generate after paying employees (Payroll Summary). I have even made myself "Inactive" and made my pay amount zero but still I come up on the report with my previous pay details despite not having generated a pay cheque. How do I amend my payroll information so that my previous pay amounts do not generate on this report

Hi Patricia. Which specific payroll summary report are you running and what date range are you using? Are you saying that the value of a previous pay for you is showing as a value for the current pay period? Does you payroll record indicate that a payment has been made for the current pay period?

1) It prints as Payroll Summary
2) I am using the date range for the previous week's pay (where no payment was produced for me)
3) And, yes, previous pay amounts are being generated on the report despite not having been paid
4) No, payroll record does not indicate that a payment is made.

I suspect it has something to do with the date paid. I have just run the report for "this week to date" and my name does not appear now that I have made myself "Inactive". My Accountant told me not to terminate myself but it appears this may have worked for next week. We shall see. Thank you

Excellent. I believe that you have solved the problem. When I run my Payroll Report I only ever use the date paid and no other range.

Hi Patricia

Just to confirm …. The “Date” / “Date Range” on reports refer to actual Pay dates, not pay period dates.

That will likely be why your Pay amount is still reflecting.

If Pay Day is Monday 10/02/20

for Pay Period: Mon 03/02 – Sun 09/02, you would need to select:

From 10/02/20 & To 10/02/20

to report on that pay.
