You can update the pay period by going to the Payroll page. Here's how:

  1. Go to All apps > Payroll Employees Edit payroll items.
  2. Under Pay schedules, choose the incorrect schedule.
  3. Click Edit, then adjust the Pay frequencyNext payday, and End of next pay period to match your company's.
  4. Once done, hit Save.
