Error 111 occurs on every backup and is fixed

Every time I back up QuickBooks Desktop, the program runs a rebuild and indicates that it found and fixed an error:

Errors we fixed

Error 111
Error: Verify TARGET: Values in minor do not match with major. Rcrd = 45027.
Details: Type: paycheck, Paycheck: Txn # 12904 on 08/26/2005, doc#:'15829', PO#:'', last edited by '', Distrib , accnt: SIMPLE IRA Employer Match , $: -21.29 , Employee name: xxx

Strangely, immediately after the rebuild I see a message to view the rebuild report but when I click it, nothing happens. I had to view the Product Information screen to get the rebuild report shown above.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks.

I'd open the company and rebuild it directly from the File | Utilities menu using the Rebuild option.

The, Verify the file from the same menu location to see if it is fixed or if the error persists.

If it persists, edit the check, change some trivial amount, and then save it. Then edited it and change it back and save it again.

Then Verify the file again and see if it's still an issue.

Thank you for trying to solve this on your own, David. I'll help you check this further.

The error indicates that paycheck #12904's data is damaged. It is supposed to be repaired by the Rebuild Utility. Somehow, it fixed it, but the issue keeps coming back.

The next approach is to refresh the paycheck data components by running the QuickBooks File Doctor, or you can toggle the paycheck information. You can do that by removing the pay and other items until the values become zero and add then add them back to recalculate the figures. Please be sure to back up your file before doing so and take a screenshot of the paycheck detail for your reference.

After toggling paycheck details, try running the Verify Utility. If it still shows the same error, delete and recreate the transaction. However, please do not do this if it's a direct deposit paycheck. You can contact our QuickBooks Desktop Payroll on Monday from 6 AM to 6 PM PT to check it out further instead.

We're just around if you have other questions about your paycheck or the error you received. We also have in-product references for payroll. Simply press the F1 key on your keyboard to launch the Help window and search the errors you see or the topics you like.

Have a good weekend!

This worked!

I found the transaction in QB, changed the amount by a penny, saved it, changed it back, and then ran the Verify process from the menu.

Now I can do a backup with no error.

Thanks so much for this great help!

I had the same error pop up (when trying to do a backup) on 3 of my paychecks (all 3 paychecks were from the same date - from about 1 month ago). I tried doing the rebuild (as prompted by Quickbooks) and it fixed 1 paycheck but not the other 2. I tried doing the rebuild two more times - the error persisted.

As suggested in this post, I opened each paycheck and changed one of the values in each paycheck by a penny and saved the paychecks. Then I opened them again changed the value back to the original value and saved the paychecks. After that, the backup worked like a charm - no errors. Thank you for this suggestion. Much appreciated.
