desktop pro 2020 payroll

I recently was working with QB Pro 2020 using a backup on external drive.  I ran 2 payrolls on the wrong company backup file, how do i correct this and get it on the current company that I am using?

Thanks for reaching out to us, cbart1.

 

Having the ability to correct payrolls that were run from the incorrect company file is much simpler for you and will save you time. At the moment, this isn't possible.

 

As a workaround, you can delete the paychecks and recreate them in the current company file.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Locate and open the paycheck.
  2. Select the Edit menu and choose Delete Paycheck (or Ctrl + D on your keyboard).
  3. The message “Are you sure you want to delete this paycheck?” will appear. Select OK to permanently delete the transaction.
  4. Continue until all paychecks have been taken out.

 

When everything is finished, you can create the payroll to the appropriate company file. Check out this article to guide you through the process: Create and run your payroll.

 

Furthermore, I've added this resource if you need to make changes to your payroll bank account for future use: Change your payroll bank account.

 

Feel free to post again if you have further questions about payroll processes. I'll be here to help you.
