I need to change payroll date on last pay check released, I selected wrong date.

Hi there, @craig-kerney

 

Thank you for posting to the Community. 

 

Let me help you modify the paycheck date of your employee in QuickBBooks. If you created it through check we can delete it and recreate manually, though if you created through Direct deposit we can void it and recreate it by paper check to avoid duplicate payment.  

 

Here's how delete paycheck: 

 

  1. Click Workers, then Employees tab. 
  2. On the right upper corner hit the hyperlink Paycheck list
  3. Check mark the employees name you wanted to change the pay date. 
  4. Select Void, then hit OK

After deleting the paycheck we can recreate it again, to correct the taxes.  

 

For additional information on this, I recommend the following articles:

You can follow the same steps provided by my colleague above to correct your paycheck date in the system. Just void and recreate it for recording purposes. You may need not to reprint it.

 

For direct deposit, you can choose the paper check when recreating it. This way, you'll have the option to not printing it and to avoid duplicate payroll of the employee.

 

To recreate the check:

 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu, then select Employees.
  2. Tap Run payroll. Then, choose the schedule.
  3. Tick Paper Check as your Pay Method.
  4. Enter the additional information about taxes or paycheck calculations. Then, choose the employees you'd like to pay.
  5. Hit Preview payroll.
  6. Pick Preview payroll details, or Submit payroll.
  7. Confirm the amounts and payment methods and click Finish Payroll.

With these steps, you're able to record the paychecks correct date in QBO. Learn more about paychecks at this link.

 

Additionally, here's a guide that covers all tasks you can do when using the payroll feature.

 

Keep me posted if you still have questions or concerns with payroll. I'll be around to help. Take care and have a great day ahead.
