Hello there, @eliterestoredcici.
I'm here to share some information on how you can set up your employee's payroll schedule.
If the pay day of your direct deposit payroll is set on January 11,2019, the pay period included for it is December 24, 2018 - January 4, 2019. Since the employee is newly hired, he will not be included for the January 11 payday. Instead, he will received his first pay on the next payday, January 25, 2019.
What you can do for now is to un-select the name of the new employee when running the payroll. Here's how:
- Go to Workers tab.
- Click Run Payroll button.
- If you're using multiple payroll schedules, choose Bi-weekly.
- Click Continue.
- Put a check mark the box beside the employees name who will be receiving their pay on the 11th.
- Enter the pay details.
- Click Preview Payroll.
- Hit Submit Payroll.
- Click Finish Payroll.
