QB Online Payroll Automatic tax payment duplicated, cannot delete the duplicate

Went into my bank feed today and found that my VA Dept of Taxation payment had two matches.  When I went into the bank register I found two auto generated QuickBooks transactions with different descriptions for the same tax payment.  I checked my bank account and only one transaction exists. 

 

Tax Payment 10/30/2024  Description is "QuickBooks Payroll"  

Tax Payment 10/30/2024  Description is "VA Department of Taxation" 

 

Why did QuickBooks automatically generate "QuickBooks Payroll" description when it is the VA Department of Taxation Payment???  QB knows we cannot delete tax payments, issue is on their end, I have made no changes to payroll.  I am positive that there are not two payroll taxes with the same amount on the same day, I have checked my Payroll tax tab and previous payments, they are all accounted for. 

 

Anyone else having this issue???  Really annoying because now I have to do a journal entry so that my bank reconciliation will match.   Also is it duplicating my VA income tax filing???

You can't call QuickBooks payroll support and get help for these kinds of things, they don't know anything. 

 

I spent hours on the phone last month because I changed my payroll bank account and they were putting the transactions in the old account because it turns out QuickBooks online payroll settings have two places that you have to change where things go.  I wasted an entire day figuring this out.  Not to mention I was uncomfortable giving this person that didn't know anything access to my accounts, doesn't sound safe.
