I'm here to support you in completing your payroll process, @andiie46. Let's explore the options for writing the check to make sure everything is done seamlessly and correctly.
Before proceeding, could you provide a screenshot of the screen where the system prompts you to write the check? This will help me identify the exact window you’re referring to, allowing me to offer you the most effective advice.
It is important to note that when running payroll in QuickBooks Online (QBO), the system automatically creates the paycheck for you if everything is successful.
All you need to do is print them and make any necessary modifications. If you refer to the final step of the payroll process, just like the screenshot I attached below, you can access the paycheck in the Paycheck list tab.

To access the paycheck, here's how:
- Go to Payroll. Located at the lower left panel.
- Select Employee.
- Click Paycheck List. Then locate the specific employee check.

4. Beside Print, click the dropdown arrow. After that, you can just Edit and Print it if needed.
However, if your payroll wasn’t successfully processed or if you chose the Save for Later option. As shown in the attached screenshot below, you can easily re-run the payroll.

Furthermore, I'll share a resource article that provides detailed guidance on managing paychecks in QuickBooks Online (QBO) payroll, including how to edit, delete, or void an employee paycheck: Edit, delete, or void employee paycheck.
