Hello there, DP6.
Let me share what I know about the period shown on your payroll liability.
When processing a payment for your tax liability, the period shown on the liability check isn't the pay period from the payroll, but instead it's the payment period that is based on your deposit or payment schedule/frequency of the payroll tax. Keep in mind that there are different frequency for your payroll tax payments such as annually , quarterly, monthly, and semi weekly schedule.
Additionally, deposit frequency is determined by your tax agencies. If your payment frequency is incorrect, you can easily change it in just a few steps.
Here's how:
- Go to Employees menu.
- Select Payroll Setup.
- On the left-side window, click on Taxes.
- Select Schedule Payments.
You may also run a payroll report that shows the amount due for each period.
Let me know if you still have questions or clarifications about pay periods. I'm always here if you need help. Have a great day!
