Welcome to the Community, @gamesforusinc.

You can go to the Employee Center and locate the paycheck from there, then delete it. Let me walk you through the steps.

1. In your QuickBooks Desktop, go to the Employees menu, then select Employee Center.
2. Select the appropriate employee from the list.
3. Find and open the created paycheck from the Transactions list.
4. In the Paycheck window, click Delete (X) icon.
5. Click OK to confirm.

Here's an article you can read for more details: Delete payroll checks.

This answer does not solve the problem. An overdue payroll was started, but never processed. Therefore there is no paycheck was created. Certainly you cannot delete a paycheck that does not exist.  We still need help to delete a Payroll with status showing "Overdue".

I've just got the steps you need to get rid of the overdue status of your payroll, newbie11.

The overdue status is just for the payroll schedule that you've missed using. What we need to do is to edit your scheduled payroll dates to get rid of the overdue status that is showing on your payroll. The process is super easy. 

Here's how to change the status of your payroll schedule:

1. Click the Employees menu at the top.
2. Choose Payroll Center.
3. In the Pay Employees tab, highlight the specific payroll schedule.
4. Click the drop-down arrow in the Payroll Schedules and choose Edit Schedule.
5. Update the dates of your pay period end date and paycheck date to the future date.
6. Click OK once you're done.

Using the steps above, you should no longer see the overdue status of your payroll.

Moving forward let's make sure to use that schedule to avoid having overdue status because it will keep you notified about it every time you miss using it.

I'm just a post away if you have any other concerns.
