What I would do is void the yearly invoice, change his pay period to
monthly, and re-bill. Emerald will handle setting the dates back
correctly when you void the invoice.

Version 2.5 is frozen on the feature set. No new features will be
available for it, just bug fixes. Emerald Version 3 is already heavily
in development and will be going into Alpha in a couple of months.
