How do I change pay period to thurs thru wed with pay date on wednesday

I can help you change the pay period in QuickBooks Online (QBO), hhcdib.

Beforehand, are you trying to edit a pay period of an existing paycheck or a payroll that's not yet created? No worries, I'll share the steps to update the schedule in your account. 

Here's how:

1. Go to the  Payroll menu and click Employees.
2. Select the employee's name.
3. Click the Employment details edit menu.
4. Tap the Pay Schedule pencil icon.
5. Choose Every Week in the Pay frequency drop-down arrow.
6. Change the date to the End of next pay period.
7. Hit Save twice.

For more details, here's an article about this process: Set up and manage payroll schedules.

Additionally, I've added this link for creating paychecks outside of regular payroll if you missed processing payroll on the scheduled date: Create unscheduled checks.

I'll return to this thread promptly for any follow-up questions about editing the pay period in QuickBooks. Other forum members and the QuickBooks Team are also available to assist. Take care.
