how do i change my pay periods and pay date in quickbooks after initial set up

how do i change my pay periods and pay date in quickbooks after initial set up? 

 

I just started a new account and have not run payroll yet. I want to change my pay periods and pay date from what I originally elected.  I do not see any Pay Schedule section in Accounts and Settings/ Payroll to do so per online instructions? Please advise. 

 

Thank you anyone!

I understand that you would like to change your pay periods and pay date in QuickBooks after the initial setup, @Shyla1.

 

Rest assured, I'm here to share insights and help you change your pay periods and pay date in QBO.

 

Typically, the Accounts and Settings would include a Pay Schedule section that allows you to modify your company's pay schedule. However, please keep in mind that once you have processed your initial payroll in QuickBooks, you will no longer have the option to make changes to the pay schedule unless you delete the entire payroll.

 

To fix this, let me route you to our QBO support team. They will be able to provide you with further assistance and guide you through the steps to change your pay periods and pay date successfully.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Sign in to your QuickBooks Online company.
  2. Go to Help (?).
  3. Select Contact Us.
  4. Enter your concern, then select Let's talk.
  5. Choose Start a chat or Get a callback from the next available expert.

 

Moreover, let me share the following articles to help manage your payroll to ensure that your employees are paid accurately and on time:
