Can I give an employee two check in one payroll? Vacation and Regular

Thank you for reaching out to the QuickBooks Community, ronmes. The ability to create two paychecks in one payroll for an employee is unavailable at this time. What you can do is run your regular scheduled payroll and do an unscheduled payroll for the vacation paycheck. You can assign the same check date and pay period as your scheduled payroll. Here's how to create an unscheduled payroll check in QuickBooks Online Payroll:

1. Go to the Workers tab then select Employees.
2. Choose Run Payroll.
3. Locate the employee and select Create another check.
4. Enter employee compensation.
5. Add the pay period and check date.
6. Hit Preview Payroll, and click Submit Payroll.
7. Select Finish payroll.

If you have Intuit Online Full Service Payroll, this link breaks down the steps to achieve this as well. For more information on how to submit your scheduled payroll to your payroll service, this article addresses the approach to run the payroll.

Please let me know how this goes and if you need additional assistance in the future. The Community and I will be around to help you at any time. Have a good day!

Select Workers on the left menu and go to the Employees tab. Click Run payroll and select the pay schedule for the payroll you want to create. Select Continue and enter the correct Pay period and Pay date.
