My computer crashed and I restored it, however the backup was a couple of weeks outdated. How do I restore payroll records that were not captured?

Welcome to the Community, dgibson2.

I'd be happy to help you record your payroll transactions so you'll have an updated company data. If these are regular paychecks, you'll need to recreate an unscheduled payroll and enter the same information.

Here's how:

1. Click on Employees at the top menu bar.
2. Select on Payroll Center.
3. In the Pay Employees section, select on Start Unscheduled Payroll.
4. Select the employee or employees you're paying.

To get more information about creating paychecks in QuickBooks Desktop, please refer to this article: Create paychecks.

However, if these are direct deposit paychecks, you can follow the steps in this article to re-create the transactions: Recreate a missing or voided direct deposit paycheck in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.

Keep me posted if you more questions, I'm always up for further assistance. Wishing you and your business continued success.
