To Re-send a Direct Deposit Voucher

If for any reason you need to resend a Direct Deposit Voucher, the PDF file will be retained in the Payroll Clerk’s Message Center or you can resend a voucher in Payday Reports
Another option is to go into Employee Look and Browse and select the Payroll Register Tab and click on the link to the left of the payroll date. This will pop up the voucher for the individual and you can print a copy from there.
