Welcome to the Community forum, @shwitt-cox-net.

 

I'll provide the steps to correct your payroll setup and route you to the best support to assist in overriding your payroll history.

 

Let's first correct your payroll setup in the Payroll settings tab. Here's how:

 

  1. From the Gear icon, select Payroll Settings.
  2. Tap the Edit icon next to Accounting.
  3. Click Edit again from the Update transactions.
  4. Add the correct Start and End date. Select Save, then Done. Only the Bank Account section doesn't change. There's a 200 transaction limit per date. If the error "There are too many transactions to update all at once", then reduce the start and end date period.

 

For detailed steps, you can read this article: Change your accounting preferences in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

 

Next,  run payroll reports to review historical deductions and contributions, tax liabilities and payments, and overall payroll details.

 

If the data are incorrect, I suggest contacting the payroll team to help you override and correct your payroll history.
