I have three checks for employees who live in IN but MN state tax was taken out of their check. How do I fix this in GP so thier information is correct?

Will I then have to make an entry into the GL to make that correct for each state...it seems like by doing a manual check it onle updates the employee information right?

Yes, that is the trick. Why not having a batch ID entered has always been a mystery.

I was able to post the transactions from the Manual Check Entry window by not assigning to a batch (This was in GP2010.2917)

It will not let me post this batch because the net amount is zero.

I would recommend doing this in Manual Checks. One of the transactions would be a positive increase the state tax code (do not forget the Taxable wages) and the other would be a decrease to the incorrect tax code (do not forget the taxable wages should also be a negative - I noticed my screen shot is incorrect. I didn't take the time to correct)
