A payroll in July was prepared manually.  I need to enter them now (after-the-fact) and get them in 3rd qtr.  All details for Jul 15 payday are entered. Checks are dated Jul 15.  None are direct deposit.  I click on Submit Checks, but message says "Pick a date closer to today", and will not process.
