An employee was shorted on her paycheck (vacation) hours last Friday. We run payroll twice a  month (1-15th and 16-31st). I want to run another paycheck to pay her those missed hours. Do I use "Unscheduled Payroll"? If so, what dates do I use? Don't want to overwrite check she already received as it was deposited. We run QuickBooks Pro 2018 and use Enhanced Payroll.

Hi there, TCaldwell.

 

I'll make sure that you can run the missing vacation hours for your employee.

 

You'll have the option to run unscheduled payroll in QuickBooks Desktop(QBDT). This will allow you to choose the time frame you need and it won't affect the paycheck that was already created. I'll show you how.

 

  1. Go to Payroll Center and select Unscheduled Payroll from the Pay Employees tab.
  2. Verify the Pay Period Ends date, Check Date, and Bank Account the money is drawn from.
  3. To see everyone's paycheck details, click Open Paycheck Detail.
  4. Choose Save & Next to go to the next employee, or select Save & Close to go back to the Enter Payroll Information window.
  5. When the checks are ready to be created, hit Continue.
  6. Review the Check/Direct Deposit printing options.
  7. Verify the amounts for each employee, and select Create Paychecks.
  8. Print paychecks and print pay stubs now or later if desired.

 

For your reference, you can check this guide here for the detailed steps: Create Paychecks.
