Setting up Payroll

While setting up payroll I entered the wrong starting date. Is there a way to change that date? I can no longer enter new employees because their hire date is over a quarter into the future. I tried to edit my information but the farthest back I can go is to the business information section.

Setting up Payroll

Hello there, a2r4.

 

If you're referring to the employee's hire date, you can still edit it after you've set up payroll. Let me show you how:

 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu.
  2. Select Employees.
  3. All your employees are listed and you can click on the employee's name you'll want to change the hire date. 
  4. Under the Personal info section, change the Hire date.
  5. Click Done.

To add a new employee just click the Add an employee button on the Employees page. 

 

However, if you're referring to the payroll start date, I'd suggest contacting our Phone Support Team. Here's a link that will help you get started with payroll in QuickBooks Online

 

Let me know if you have other questions. Take care!
