Wrong author list in the editorial manager

My PI submitted our manuscript as the corresponding author through Editorial Manager, but he didn’t enter all the co-authors in the author tab of the system. The full author list is correctly included in the manuscript file, though. He also misspelled my first name in the system (it’s quite wrong), although it is correct in the manuscript. Has anyone experienced this before? Can missing authors and name errors usually be corrected later (e.g., at revision), or does this cause problems with the journal? Proofs use the manuscript file data right?
