Welcome, @jrgolf53 and thank you for coming to the QuickBooks Community for assistance. 

 

I'll be happy to explain how to print payroll checks through QuickBooks Online.

 

To print, follow these steps:

  1. Select Workers from the left menu > Employees.
  2. Select Paycheck List under Run payroll.
  3. Select the paychecks you want to print. Change the date range if necessary
  4. Click Print.
  5. A PDF will open, then click the printer icon.

First, you'll need to set this up. You can find more information on this here.

 

Please keep me posted on your results with this here, the Community has you covered. Thanks again, I'll be standing by for your response.

Do payroll checks have to be printed locally?  Is there a third part processing option that can print the payroll checks so that I simply just have to run the payroll and the checks will be mailed to me?

Thanks for looping in, rclifton.

I'm here to provide you with some insight about printing payroll checks in QuickBooks Online.

 

Printing payroll checks and mailing them directly to you isn't currently offered in QuickBooks Online. If you wish to have a copy of your paychecks, you can download them and save as PDF.

 

I can definitely see how this feature would be useful. As a team with a massive roadmap, we have to pick new features based on the value they’ll add to the most users possible. I recommend sending this request straight to our product engineers through feedback. This will notify the Product Development Team that the option for printing payroll checks and mailing them would be beneficial to running your business.

 

We aren't able to tell when a feature will be available. We share recent happenings and future developments on our blog. Through this, you're able to get the latest news about QuickBooks and what our Product Care Team is working on. 

 

You can check out this article for more details: Print Paychecks.

Hi i ran payroll for the first time today but somehow skipped the check printing part!!! Is there any way to reprint the payroll checks with the same check number?

Thanks for checking in with us, shadowfaxroofing.

 

The option to reprint the payroll checks with the same check number is unavailable in QuickBooks Online (QBO). However, you can always re-print the paychecks using your check stock on your printer. 

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Reports on the left side menu. 
  2. From the search icon at the left corner, type Paycheck List
  3. Select the paycheck you want to print by putting a checkmark in the box.
  4. Tick the Print button. Then it will appear in the PDF viewer.
  5. Tap the printer icon in the PDF viewer.
  6. Choose your printer in the Destination drop-down.
  7. Press Print.

 

For more details about this one, check out this article: Print paychecks in QuickBooks Online

 

I've got a link here that provides you with articles about managing your payroll: Pay employees, enter timesheets, and send payroll forms.

 

Keep me posted if you need a hand with running payroll reports or any QBO related. I'll be here to help. Take care always.

Good job for trying out the steps given by my colleagues above, beldauto. 

 

In editing the bank account on the paycheck, we'll have to delete and recreate it. We can also update the Check Number as well when recreating one.

 

Here's how to delete a paycheck: 

  1. Go to the Workers menu and select Employees. 
  2. Click on Paycheck list at the upper-right.
  3. Select the Paycheck and click Delete. 

 Then, we can recreate the paycheck and enter the correct Bank and Check Number.

 

On the other hand, if we want to just update the Check Number we can edit it without dleting and recreating a paycheck. If we're unable to do, we can do a browser troubleshooting steps. You can follow the steps given by my colleague @JanyRoseB

 

Let me know on how this works. Take care always!
