I processed payroll, due March 2. For some reason the date on checks is March 16. how can I change the date in my ledger to March 2?

Let me share some ideas about how paychecks work in QuickBooks, @jaustin98.

If you need to edit the approved manual check, you'll have to delete and recreate it with the correct payroll date. I'll show you how:

1. Choose Payroll from the left panel.
2. Select the Employees tab.
3. Click the name of the appropriate employee name, then choose Paycheck list.
   
   
4. Tick the checkbox next to the pay date, then choose the Delete button.
   
   
5. Select Yes when you see the confirmation message.
6. Go back to the employee list and recreate the paycheck.

If the void or delete option is missing, I suggest directly giving us a quick call. This way, we can pull up your account in a safe environment and modify the paycheck for you. 

Additionally, here's an article that you can utilize to help manage and track your employee and payroll expenses in QuickBooks: Run payroll reports.
