Hey there, @tevans1.

 

Welcome to Community. I'm happy to assist you with paying your 940 quarterly taxes. 

 

For this, you would need to combine the total due and create a custom liability payment. 

 

To create a custom liability payment: 

 

  1. Go to the Employees menu, then select the Payroll Center.
  2. Select the Pay Liabilities tab.
  3. Under Other Activities, select Create Custom Payments.
  4. In the Select Date Range for Liabilities window, select a date range, then OK. Note: Liabilities are accrued on the date the paycheck is issued, not on the pay period of the check.
  5. Select To be printed if you want to print the liability check. If you paid using a handwritten check, leave this clear.
  6. Select the bank account and the date you want to appear on the liability check.
  7. Choose either Review your liability check to enter expenses/penalties or Create a liability check without reviewing.
  8. Select the payroll item you want to pay, then select Create. Note that if you select multiple payroll items, the items paid to the same agency are combined into one liability check, while items paid to separate agencies produce multiple liability checks. Make sure the check amount and item list under Payroll Liabilities are accurate.
  9. If you choose to Review your liability check to enter expenses/penalties, a liability check appears. If you didn’t, you can view the liability check in the check register.
  10. Make sure the date and amounts are correct, then select Print if you want to print the check. If you used a handwritten check, enter the check number or other references in the NO. field. If you pay liabilities by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), clear the To Be Printed check-box and type EFT in the NO. field of the liability check.
  11. Go to the Expenses tab if you want to enter expenses/penalties on the liability check.
  12. From the Account field drop-down, select the expense account you use to track payroll expenses and penalties, then enter the amount in the Amount column.
  13. Select Recalculate. Make sure the amount on the liability check includes the expense or penalty.
  14. Select Save & Close.
