Date in period of liabilities is incorrect.

Hello there, @tcc2017. 

Thanks for visiting the Community. It's could be that the scheduled tax payments were set up incorrectly, that's why the Period displayed inaccurately. 

Let's review the scheduled tax payments list to ensure it's accurate, then make some changes if needed. Here's how:

1. Go to the Employees menu, then select the Employee Center.
2. Click the Pay Liabilities tab.
3. In the Other Activities section, click Manage Payment Methods.
4. Go to the Schedule payments menu, then review the description of each payment. 
5. Click the Edit button to modify the date to the correct period. 

You Can also read through this article: Set up and pay scheduled or custom (unscheduled) liabilities. It helps you learn about how to manage scheduled or unscheduled liabilities:

Your pay period and our liabilities due periods are not the same thing.

Your pay period is the date range for which you will pay your employees, on the next pay date.

Your liability period(s), potentially different for each tax and/or agency, key off of that pay date.  They are typically quarterly or monthly or similar, whatever your agencies say.

Thanks, but I tried that before I reached out to the community.  I went back and double checked it after reading your response but nothing changed. 

Yes, but I have been using this since Jan 2017.  Up until this week, everything was perfect.  Date wise and amount wise.  Now all the sudden this week the dates are off as well as the amounts. 

Hi there, tcc2017,

I'm here to help ensure you're able to correct the period date for your liabilities.

Let's perform one more step to get this working by using a different payment schedule. Then, modify the period from there. To do so, you can follow the steps from 1-5 provided by my colleague @katherinejoyceO. 

Then, proceed with the steps outlined below:

1. Mark the Let me use a different payment (deposit) frequency box, then click Next.
   
2. Modify the schedule, then click Finish.

If the same issue persists, I highly recommend contacting our QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Care Team. They can help verify your tax set up in a secure environment.

I am commenting because I am encountering the same problem. I am using QuickBooks Desktop 2023 and there is no option of "Let me use a different payment frequency". How can I adjust this when I only have pre-set options of Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, or Annually?

Thank you,

Welcome to the thread, @bnels97. I'll guide you on how to tick the Let me use a different payment frequency for your taxes.

First, open your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) file as a master administrator to avoid restrictions with your payroll setup. Then, follow these steps:

1. Go to the Employees menu, then Payroll Center.
2. Select Manage Payment Methods under Other Activities.
3. Click on Schedule Payments.
4. Choose the tax from the list, then Edit.
5. Tick the box beside Let me use a different payment (deposit) frequency.
6. Hit Next, then set your desired schedule.
7. Tap Finish when done.
