Question

Can a payroll tax liability from last year showing in tax liabilities, but actually paid manually be deleted so it doesn't show in the financial reports as a liability?

In converting from desktop to QB online last year, payroll taxes continued to be paid manually (showing in banking register). At same time, taxes due were accruing in QB online. Several of these "taxes due" cannot be matched with bank transactions in register because amounts don't match. How can these "taxes due" or tax liabilities showing in QB online be deleted. All taxes have actually been paid and are up to date, but these tax liabilities show up in the Balance Sheet, resulting in inaccurate information.

Hello sarpig,

 

I can help you record these tax payments without affecting your bank account's balance. 

 

Here's how: 

  1. Go to Taxes.
  2. Select Payroll Tax.
  3. Click on Enter prior tax history.
  4. Click on Add payment.
  5. Select the Tax Type, Liability Period, Payment Date, Notes, and tax item amount. 
  6. Click on OK.
