Hi Jerryates,
I'm here to help you enter payroll checks manually. Before following any of the steps below, I suggest reaching out to your accountant so they can guide you on the correct accounts to use.
Then, here's how to record a manual paycheck.
To start with, let's create payroll liabilities accounts. To do so, go to the Transactions tab, and select Chart of accounts. Then, click New. Select an Account Type and Detail Type, and then give it a Name.
From there, let's add a journal entry. For the detailed steps of the process, you can check this article: Enter the payroll paychecks into QuickBooks Online.
Moreover, you can pin this link on how to have a closer look at your business' finances: Run payroll reports.
Keep me posted whenever you have other concerns about recording manual paychecks.
