Payroll

Hello there, @Sweekly.

Let me share some information to help you process employees' paychecks for recording purposes.

QuickBooks Online allows users to run payroll without actually paying their employees for recording purposes only. In this case, you'll need to use a paper check. If you're using direct deposit, change the payment method from the employees' profile.

Proceed to these steps to process your paycheck:

1. On the left pane, go to Payroll and choose the Employees tab.
2. Select the Run payroll dropdown, then select Bonus only.
3. Answer additional questions and enter taxes or paycheck calculation details if necessary.
4. Choose or review the Pay period and Pay date.
5. Select the employees you need to pay.
6. Enter Hours, Salary, and Memo.
7. For other pay details, click Edit paycheck from the Actions icon.
8. At the bottom right corner, choose Preview payroll.
9. Choose either Preview payroll details and Save for later or Submit payroll.
10. Once done, select Close.

On the other hand, you can run and customize payroll reports to have an overview of your business finances.
