payroll done today but pay period was incorrect how will i correct the pay period beginning period correct one 5/27/25 to 6/7/25 not 6/7/25 to 6/20/25

You can delete and recreate the paycheck if it was issued as a paper check and then correct the employee's pay period.

Here's how:

1. From the Payroll menu, tap the Employees tab.
2. Select the employee you want to edit.
3. Go to the Paycheck list tab and click the Print Paystub dropdown of the paycheck you want to delete or void.
4. Once done, re-run the payroll and select the correct dates in the Pay Period dropdown field.
5. Ensure the Pay date is accurate.

If it's through Direct deposit, you can also edit the paychecks if you haven't submitted your payroll yet. However, if you have already issued them, the ability to void the paychecks will depend on your direct deposit lead time. Please refer to this article for detailed information about direct deposit processing time: Determine what your direct deposit lead time is.

If the direct deposit status is Funded and you are unable to make the changes, I recommend contacting our Payroll Correction team. They have the expertise and tools needed to make the necessary adjustments. Check out this article on how to contact them and our support hours: Get help with QuickBooks products and services.
