I need to change the week end date on payroll processed yesterday.

I can help you with that, sandy6960.

The option to directly edit the date of the payroll (paper checks or direct deposit) that has already been processed is unavailable in QuickBooks Online. We'll have to delete and recreate the paycheck to be able to modify the date and you'll get accurate records on your reports.

You can follow these simple steps:
 

1. Select Payroll from the sidebar menu, then go to the Employees tab.
2. Click the Paycheck list link.
3. Select the checkbox next to the pay date for each you would like to delete. (You can also click the amount to open the check then click Delete).
4. Scroll down to the end of the paycheck list and click the Delete button.
5. Select Yes or Delete Paycheck to confirm the changes.

Once done, we can now recreate the paycheck with the correct information:

1. Select Payroll from the sidebar menu, then go to the Employees tab.
2. Click Run Payroll.
3. If you have more than one payroll schedule, select the schedule then click Continue.
4. Select or review the bank account you want QuickBooks to track this payroll transaction in, the pay period and pay date.
5. Choose the employees you'd like to pay.
6. Enter hours, compensation, memos, or any other necessary paycheck information based on the deleted paycheck.
7. Select Preview payroll.
8. Click Preview payroll details or Submit payroll, then select Finish Payroll to complete the process.

In case you'll need to track where your business stands in terms of employee expenses, we can run the payroll reports to view useful information about your company.
