Overview

The Payroll Journal report (Employees > Reports > Payroll Journal) is generated based on the Check Date.

The Payroll report (Employees > Reports > Payroll Report) is generated based on the Pay Period End Date.

If you are using a date range that falls after the Pay Period End Date, but before the Check Date, this would cause a difference in the report results. Also, if an employee does not have a check falling in the date range selected, they will not show in the list of employees to include on the report.
