Hi Lorali45,
Welcome to the Community. It's essential to run payroll to ensure that your employees get paid. QuickBooks Online is a flexible program that simplifies the way you manage your books. I'd be glad to provide you with information on payroll.
If you have just created a pay cheque for an employee, I recommend that you delete that pay cheque. By deleting the pay cheque, the direct deposit will not be processed. I encourage you review this article on how to delete a pay cheque. You can also reach out to our customer support team for further assistance on this at 1-855-253-1536.
Let me know if you have questions, I'll be happy to help.
