Employees and payroll

Greetings, Bmarchuck.

 

I'd like to join the discussion and ensure you get the right clarification regarding this matter.

 

Just to confirm, do you see the orange exclamation point and Pending status in the Create Paychecks section of the Payroll Center? If so, it means that you've set up a Pay Schedule that's due on that specific date.

 

A quick and easy to clear this is to run the scheduled payroll. However, if you've already run payroll for that day using the Start Unscheduled Payroll button, then you may need to update the dates of this pay schedule. Here's how:

  1. From the Employees menu, choose Payroll Center.
  2. Make sure you're in the Pay Employees tab.
  3. Select the schedule.
  4. Click the Payroll Schedules drop-down button.
  5. Choose Edit Schedule.
  6. Update the Dates as necessary.
  7. Click OK.

For additional insight about this, I'm also including this article: Set up and manage payroll schedules

 

Let me know if this isn't quite what you're looking for. I've got your back and am always happy to help however I can.
