I made a mistake with payroll payday. how do I change the pay date.

Hi there info-beyondcarel,

It's important that all your employees are paid for the hours they've worked for your company. QuickBooks Online Payroll is a great tool able to help you with paying your employees by paper cheque or by direct deposit. I can point you in the right direction to get this corrected.

If you run payroll by paper cheques, you can delete the most recent cheque for each employee until you get to the one that needs to be modified, then recreate the cheques with the correct date by running payroll again.

If you use direct deposit for the pay run, you'd need to reach out to the QuickBooks Online support team outside of the Community in order to get that payroll edited. You can reach out to them using these methods:

Schedule a Callback or start a Chat: click (?)Help in the upper right > type and enter "Contact support" into the QB Assistant > click Contact Us > explain your situation > click Let's Talk > choose Get a callback or Start a Chat.
