Question

How do I make a separate bonus check using Quickbooks Online?

In the Intuit Online Payroll platform, which Intuit superseded with Quickbooks Online in July (and there is no going back), it was possible to do a "bonus run" outside of a normal payroll cycle. I don't see that option in Quickbooks Online. What am I missing?

Hey there, @byron6

 

Thanks for reaching out to the Community for support. 

 

To clarify, are you needing to create a check outside of your scheduled payroll? If so, we do still have a process for this. Let me cover some of the steps for you below. 

 

  1. Open the Payroll menu.
  2. Choose Employees.
  3. Select Run payroll.
  4. Find the employee you want to pay, and then click Create another check.
  5. Enter employee compensation, including any salary adjustments, vacation or sick hours, and other pay types.
  6. Confirm the pay period and check date.
  7. Select Preview Payroll, and then hit Submit payroll.
  8. If you're creating a paper check, hand write or print the check and give it to the employee by the check date.
  9. Tap Finish payroll.
