Payroll report and tax report numbers do not add up

Hello -

I'm trying to do some taxes and I am encountering a strange issue -

I am using the Community Edition - Version 11.1.4

I have an employee who worked in Q1. He worked 454 hours in Q1 at $11 an hour, a gross wage of $4,994 (verified by looking at his last paystub from the end of Q1)

If I run a Pay Stub Summary Report, his Gross Wages show as $3,976.50 for Q1

It seems to have rolled into Q2, but that is not where it should be. Any help would be appreciated

When running any payroll related reports (ie: Pay Stub Summary, Tax Reports, etc...) the Time Period (date filter) that you use is based on the "Transaction Date", not the pay period start/end date. So the employee may have "worked" in Q1, but got paid (transaction date) in Q2, that makes that pay stub a Q2 pay stub, not a Q1 pay stub.
