I have an employee who was paid via DD and has a pay raise that is backdated to that previous check. How do I pay her the difference? Salary Adjustment only allows to adjust down. Do I go back to last pay in Time and adjust it there?

Hi there, @ASOMFinance.

I'm here to help share insights about the direct deposit processing for employees' payroll in QuickBooks Online.

Direct deposit payroll requires a certain number of days of submission for timely processing. Kindly read and use this article to learn more about direct deposit payroll processing: When to Send your Payroll to Pay your Employees on Time?.

Saying you've already submitted the direct deposit and the pay raise started with a backdated period, we are no longer able to perform any changes to the payroll transaction in question.

Therefore, it's best not to adjust any of the paychecks already submitted. And then, manually send in the other payroll showing the rest of the hours worked for your employee within the period.

Here's an article you can read to learn more about creating a paycheck: Create and Run Payroll in QuickBooks Online.
