How do I change payroll date? I cannot move payroll from the 14th to the 1st

Hello there,

In QuickBooks Payroll, the pay period listed on paychecks may be incorrect. It can be caused by an incorrect payroll schedule, mistakenly running an unscheduled payroll, or entering the wrong dates during paycheck creation.

If it's because of incorrect payroll schedules, check out Set up and manage payroll schedules to fix them. If you want to edit the pay period dates on paychecks, once a paycheck is there, you won't be able to modify the dates. However, there are still options available to you:

1. If the paycheck is direct deposit and is already processed.

• I suggest you contact us for help changing your pay period dates.

2. If the direct deposit paycheck is there but not yet processed, or the pay is a paper check.

• You can try to delete the paycheck and then recreate it with the correct pay period.

I will leave these articles for future purposes:

• Add prior payroll totals by paycheck date.
• Set up and track time off in payroll.
