Hello, @hafermanncounsel.
Let me share some information on how to change your first payroll date.
It is important to keep in mind that the first date of payroll entry cannot be changed once it has been created. However, there are several alternatives available to help you with this matter. I recommend reaching out to our team support who can guide you in the process of editing your first payroll date. Here's how:
- Sign in to your QuickBooks Online company.
- Select Help (?).
- In QB Assistant, enter the topic you need help with. You can also enter questions.
- In Search, select Contact Us to connect with a live support agent.
- Choose a way to connect with us:
- Start a chat with a support expert. Live chat all day, M-F.
- Call us. M-F, 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, and S-S, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
Please see this article for more information: QuickBooks Online Support.
For future help, you can run payroll reports in QBO, refer to this article: Run payroll reports in QuickBooks Online Payroll. The same resources will give details on how to mark a favorite report and customize reports.
Loop me in if you have other QBO-related concerns, specifically on payroll. I'd be glad to assist you. Have a good one.
