In payroll, would like to be able to enter negative hours so we can correct mistakes to grants etc.

  My previous employer used GMS and they allowed for negative hours, which was great and easy way to fix mis-codings. The way the GMS was set up, we were unable to do anything to the Wage & Fringe GL codes outside of payroll, so being able to do negatives was great. Looking back, I see that the restrictions on the GL codes was great because it allowed for more ease around the audit. At my current employer I have to go in month by month to make sure all wage/ fringe journal entries net to each other.

  Hi Jacqueline,
  
  This can be accomplished today by adjusting employer/employee balances. Please see our Knowledge Base article here for help with this:

  Hope this helps!

  While this may help the payroll side it really doesn't address correcting the general ledger and the distribution.

  Hi Craig,
  
  We acknowledge your frustration and we'd like to find another way to address your concern, unfortunately the current design of MIP doesn't allow for us to make negative hour adjustments in payroll but we'll work internally to think through different solutions.
  
  Thanks for your input,
  Megh

  I agree with Craig. Making a balance adjustment rather than making an actual entry feels like a work around but doesn't fix the problem.
