How to handle a stale check from last year?

We are on HCM 9.2.23, PT 8.56.15 and have a situation with a stale check. The situation is that an employee discovered that he had never cashed a check from January of 2021. He is trying to cash it now and the bank will not accept it due to it being stale dated. I can’t simply reprint the check because the date of the check wouldn’t change. Because it’s now a new year, I can't reverse and issue a new check because those earnings were in 2021 and would have been on his 2021 W2.

We thought about manual check but that would still update earnings, taxes, deductions, etc. so that won't work either.
