    Hi Wilfords,

     

    Thank you for your post.

     

    The reason you're unable to see the “Pay Run” tab is because you're utilizing the AccountRight desktop version. In this version, the ability to delete a payment is only possible if the amount hasn't been withdrawn from your bank account and hasn't been reported to the ATO.

     

    To delete a pay, navigate to Find transactions >> Card >> choose the employee's name for whom you want to delete a pay >> select Edit >> Delete transaction. Before proceeding with the deletion, please ensure that the "Transactions can't be changed, they must be reversed" preference is not selected (found in the Setup menu >> Preferences >> Security).

     

    For more detailed information on how to do this, you may refer to this Help article: Fixing a Pay.

     

    Please let me know if you require further assistance.
