We have an employer contributed 2% of gross pay retirement plan. I realized I forgot to add the contribution to an employee before running payroll. I didn't catch it and now multiple payroll weeks have been run without the calculation. How do I manually adjust in Quickbooks Online? This is a multiple week issue and I want to make sure his pay stub is accurately reflected.

I understand the importance of adding retirement contributions for an employee in QuickBooks Online (QBO), bjkalosky. I'm here to share insights about this.

 

If the transaction is from the previous quarter to the present, you can delete/void the paychecks. Once done, recreate them and add the Retirement Contribution. However, if it's dated way back 6 months ago, I suggest contacting our Payroll Support Team to help you with the payroll correction. 

 

Here's how to reach them: 

 

  1. Click the Help menu in the upper-right-hand corner.
  2. Type in Talk to a human, then press Enter.
  3. Select Contact Support Team.
  4. Type again Talk to a human and click Contact Support Team.
  5. Choose a way to connect with us.

 

Additionally, you might want to edit your employee paycheck. You can read this article: Edit, delete, or void employee paychecks.

 

For future reference, you can check this article to guide you in running payroll reports: Run payroll reports.

 

Keep your posts coming if you need further assistance with adding retirement contributions. I'm always here to help. Have a great day.
