Change Payroll back a period?

When doing the monthly close process through the GL Closing process, one of our users inadvertently closed Payroll twice, moving it forward to period 05 when it should be 04. When I try to change the period back to 04 in the PR Setup screen, I get a message stating "Once transactions are entered, this period cannot be changed." There shouldn't be any transactions entered in 05 as the user noticed it right away and stopped anyone from entering transactions.

Is it possible to change the Payroll period back and if so, how can I do that?

Run the Allocation Process regardless wither you have transaction or not, the system thinks you do, then try to change the PR Period; you must be in the initialization mode to do so.

The only way you will be able to change the PRsetup.pernbr is with an update directly to the table in Management Studio. While I can't recommend doing something that the programs have been written to not allow, I can't think of any issues it should cause.
