Create and run your payroll
by Intuit•102• Updated 2 weeks ago
Step 1: Assign a pay schedule to your employees
We recommend using pay schedules to make running your regular payroll more efficient. If you haven’t already, set up and add a payroll schedule for your employees.
Step 2: Create your paychecks and send your payroll
Next, you’ll need to create your direct deposit or paper paychecks, then send them to us for processing.
If you’ve set up a payroll schedule, you can create a scheduled payroll or an unscheduled payroll
- Scheduled payroll: paychecks you give your employees regularly. You can also add bonuses or other pay to these paychecks.
- Unscheduled payroll: you may need to pay your employees bonuses, commissions, a final paycheck, or report fringe benefits outside your regular payroll schedule.
The steps to create your paychecks and run your payroll depend on your payroll service. Select your product below to begin. Not sure which payroll service you have? Here's how to find your payroll service.
