I have issued the employee an ROE and they do not have any outstanding vacation pay. Since I have switched their status to "terminated" in Quickbooks I no longer have the option to run their last paycheque.

Hi there info-digitl-ca,

 

It's vital that all your transactions so that your payroll totals can be accurate. QuickBooks Online is a great tool able to help you pay your employees for the hours they've worked for your company. I can provide some information about paying employees.

 

Only Active employees can be paid in QuickBooks Online Payroll, so the employee would need to be made active once more to pay them. In order to change their status from terminated to active, navigate to the Payroll option in the left menu, then Employees. Click on the drop-down that has Active Employees written in and select Inactive Employees. Click on the name of the employee you want to edit, then Edit employee. Select the Employment details section and change their status to Active before clicking Done.
