I'm happy to see you in the Community, fisherhouseinc. Allow me to help you record a deposit for the employer contribution of the 403b.
I'd like to ask what you mean by processing the deposit from any journal entries or payroll liabilities. Can you also tell us what version of QuickBooks you're using? This is for us to make sure we share the best steps and make sure everything is recorded accordingly.
In the meantime, you can also follow these steps to create a bank deposit to record the check for the employer's portion of the retirement fund:
