Choose desired options when previewing payroll:
Manual Check Date - Check to change the pay date for this one pay period. This will override the current check date with the date entered.
Advance/Zero Pay - Check to advance a check date, due to your customer skipping a payroll. Checking this will enable Employer on the Go to advance the pay dates and close the current pay period.
