Hi there billclay,

I'd be more than happy to help you with this.

You can change the status of your payroll schedule without creating duplicate paychecks in QuickBooks.

Here's how:

1. Click the Employees menu at the top.
2. Choose Payroll Center.
3. In the Pay Employees tab, highlight the specific payroll schedule.
4. Click the drop-down arrow in the Payroll Schedules and choose Edit Schedule.
5. Update the dates of your pay period end date and paycheck date to the future date.
6. Click OK once you're done.

I've provided a screenshot for you.

Please let me know if you have any other questions about this concern.
