Help please! We were on automatic taxes in QBO and with the new change on Nov1 didn't realize we would get taxes removed for the "next month". Given that, in October we didn't leave enough funds in the account to make the payment on 10/15 (for September payroll). So our automatic tax payment failed. Now QBO properly shows that attempt as Failed, but shows as the only option "Resubmit Payment". However, since we didn't have the funds, we made other arrangements with eftps and paid the 10/15 fed liability manually. Now in QBO, I just need to mark that as paid, but it doesn't seem to offer that option for failed payments. How can I tell QBO that the failed automatic payment was manually paid?
Thanks.

I actually tried your steps, but the "Mark as Paid" option isn't available when an automatic payment failed. In addition, when I tried to manually record the tax payment via "Record Tax Payments (prior tax history)", it doesn't get rid of the notice that I need to resubmit on the original automatic payment, and worse then says I have overpaid. So I deleted my manual attempt and am back at square one. I'll try chatting with a Live Agent...
