Glad to see you in the Community today, lara11.


I can help in removing the duplicate liability payments showing as overdue in your account. Let’s enter the historical tax payments to mark them as paid.

 

  1. Go to the Help menu at the top to choose select About QuickBooks.
  2. On your keyboard, press Ctrl + Alt + Y to open the Setup YTD Amounts window.

  3. Select Next four times until you reach the Enter prior payments section.

  4. From there, click Create Payment and then input the information in the Enter the Payment Date and For Period Ending date fields.
  5. In the Taxes and Liabilities field, choose the payroll tax item you’ve already paid and then enter the amount.
  6. Hit the Accounts Affected button and select Do not affect accounts. This is to ensure the prior payments will not affect your balances or show up in the bank register.
  7. Click Next Payment to record another prior payment.
  8. Then, click Done to save your work.
  9. Press the Finish button to close the window.     

Let me share the Scheduled liabilities payroll show as overdue or in red guide. It provides an overview of why a liability will still show in the Pay Taxes & Other Liabilities window even if it’s already paid.

 

The resolution is scenario-based, and it includes instructions on how to fix each one.


Stay in touch if you need further assistance or any other concerns. I’ll be right here to help. Have a good one.

I've followed the directions and it still shows the liability due.  Using Desktop Pro 2019.  The period on the liability check submitted was incorrect and I corrected it.  The liability check that shows due is the same date that came for the one I paid 4/1-4/3.  The girl before me didn't have the dates right and I didn't catch them this payroll or the one before. 

 

Never mind.  I figured it out.
