2. Audit Trail Reports (Pay Hours Input, Pay Check Register, Labor Distribution) have been printed and are ready for Permanent Storage.
3. Certified Payroll (if required) has been printed.
4. Payroll Checks have been printed and reviewed for accuracy.

4. Re-balance and verify Control Totals
Making a change AFTER this step is more complex and requires REVERSING PREVIOUSLY UPDATED RECORDS.
