My estimated payments for tax year 2020 for Q1 was applied to Q3. Why? How can I apply it correctly.

Hi cks215. Sometimes errors like this can occur if the date is wrong on the expense that was created for the Tax Payment. I feel like this is probably the culprit so here's how you can edit the expense to get it straightened out:

  1. Go to the Transactions menu.
  2. Find the Tax Payment for Q1
  3. Select the ▼ icon to expand the transaction.
  4. Check the Date on the transaction for accuracy. If it's incorrect like I suspect, go ahead and change it to the correct Date.
  5. Ensure the Category selected is Tax Payment
  6. When you're done, select Save.

After that, go ahead and run your report again to check if it worked. Let me know if this helps, I'll be here if you run into anything else. Have a great day.
