Print/PDF Direct Deposit stub with zero amount payroll check

Hi all,

This issue involves Sage 100 4.5 and higher.

Does anyone know of a way to print/PDF a Direct Deposit stub for an employee who has Direct Deposit enabled, but because their deductions on their current check negate any wages due, end up with a zero amount check?  The standard setup results in a zero dollar check being printed.  No PDF Direct Deposit stub is generated.  This is a problem because the employee has earned wages, and has had taxes deducted, but does not receive their usual PDF.  The employer must then deal with the paper version of the employee's stub, in addition to wasting the check stock.

What we are looking for is a way to include the zero dollar check /DD Stub, with all the other DD stubs that are generated as Payroll is processed.  A possible alternative would be to print individual PDFs of those employees after the main batch is run, but from what I can tell, no DD stub is generated at all.

Thank you

    To my knowledge,  you have to print a paper check (it could just be on plain paper).   Could be a good item to put on the ideas site.   Doesn't seem like it would be too hard to tweak from a programming standpoint.

    Is this a common occurrence for your company?   Usually when I encounter this with my clients it is a once a year type of thing with owners of the company playing catch up on their estimated tax payments.

    Thanks for your response Tom. It does seem that it wouldn't take much to accomplish the added capability.

    My client has about 8000 employees in the fast/casual dining market.  They may have 10 or more zero dollar checks per pay period.
