Hello there, mike.

 

I understand the frustration of having your pay week not align with your desired schedule.

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), changing the start day of the week affects overtime calculation. We can update the pay schedule to set Wednesday as the pay period starts.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu and select Employees.
  2. Choose your employee.
  3. From Employment details, select Edit.
  4. Click the Pay Schedule drop-down arrow, then select the pay schedule for the employee moving forward. Or, create a new pay schedule by tapping the + Add pay schedule.
  5. Once done, hit Save.

 

Also, select or enter the correct pay period ending to edit the pay period.

 

I'll also include this article if you need to check and verify your current liabilities for the quarter: Run payroll reports.

 

Let me know if you need additional assistance while processing your payroll checks. I'll be sure to get back to you. Take care.
