Hello, Ap.
Let me provide you with some insights on how to record payments made outside of QuickBooks Online Payroll, and how to make necessary adjustments to your employees' payments.
QuickBooks allows you to easily record a federal tax payment, regardless of whether it was made within or outside the software, making the process of managing your finances more convenient and efficient.
To record tax payments that were not processed using QuickBooks Online Payroll. Here's how:
- Go to Taxes, then Payroll Tax.
- Select the Payments tab.
- Review the payments listed and locate the tax you want to record a payment for.
- If the payment is listed, from the dropdown choose the option Mark as paid then select Yes, mark paid.
If the payment is not listed, continue with the steps below:
- Go to Taxes, then Payroll Tax.
- Select the Payments tab.
- Select Record tax payments (prior tax history).
- Select Add Payment.
- Select a Tax Type, then enter the following:
- Period Start Date and Period End Date - the period that the taxes were accrued
- Payment Date
- Check Number (optional)
- Memo (optional)
- Payment Amount
6. Select Submit payment.
Additionally, I would like to suggest that you have the option to make changes to a previous payment if you need to edit prior payment, which can be really helpful in case you need to make any adjustments.
