How do you change payroll run date? I do weekly paychecks and just need to move it back by one day. Appreciate any advice!

Changing pay periods and transaction dates is a simple task that can be done with just a few clicks, LT2490.

 

Let me walk you through the process of how to make this change in QuickBooks Online. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu and proceed to the Employee's tab.
  2. Click Run payroll.
  3. Go to the Pay date field, then click the Calendar icon and move the date back by a day.
  4. Proceed to creating the paychecks like you normally would.
