Payroll error - says "having trouble getting your next paydate right now"? Paydate is on Friday, banking holiday, and understand I need to run 24 hours before, but can't

I understand the importance of getting your employees paid on time, @usercmurfiniii. I'll be glad to share some troubleshooting steps to help you run your payroll.

You're right, since your payday falls on a Friday holiday, you'll need to submit payroll one day earlier than usual. What you experienced right now may be caused by stored cookies and cache, that block you from running your payroll. In this case,  we can perform the basic troubleshooting steps to fix the issue. Here's how:
 

1. Restart your browser.
2. You may run your payroll in an incognito or private browser. You can use these keyboard shortcuts to launch a new private window:
    

Google Chrome: press Ctrl + Shift + N
Mozilla Firefox: press Ctrl + Shift + P
Safari: press Command + Shift + N

If it works, you can return to your regular browser and clear your browser's cache. Then you may see if it fixes the problem and gets started on the tasks at hand. However, if the incognito window didn't work, you can use another supported browser.

You may refer to this article for more details: Troubleshooting browser problems.

However, if the issue persists I'd suggest reaching out to our QuickBooks Online Payroll Support Team. That way, they can investigate further about the issue.

I've also added this article for more details about how to make sure your employees get paid on time when there’s a holiday: How do federal holidays affect my direct deposit?
