Thanks for asking the Community, @KLEKWW. I'm delighted to walk you through creating a backdated paycheck in QuickBooks Online.
We can run an unscheduled payroll to process a late payroll. However, due to law of constructive receipt, paychecks should always be dated as the funds become available to the employee.
Here's how:
- Go to the Payroll menu, then select Employees.
- Select the dropdown menu, and choose one of the following options: Bonus only, Commission only or Fringe benefits only.
- Select As net pay or As gross pay, then enter any info about taxes or paycheck calculations if necessary.
- Review the QuickBooks bank account to track your payroll, the pay period and pay date.
- Select the employees you'd like to pay, then enter hours, compensation, memos, or any other paycheck info as necessary.
- Click Preview payroll, and then select Submit payroll.
- Confirm the amounts and payment methods and select Finish Payroll.
