Set Up Employees on Manual Pay
If you missed your pay date and don't want to push it back, you'll instead need to set up employees on manual pay. With this method, you as the employer would be responsible for paying employees out via a manual method such as check, cash, Venmo, PayPayl, etc. You can get pay amounts on the final stage of the payroll process by referencing the Net Pay.
We would still be responsible for collecting any tax liabilities on the payroll.
