Where is the discount button when you pay your state payroll tax on time

in the pay sales tax window, there is a link, not a button, to enter a discount, click that.  Sales tax discounts are other income

Hello there, userpstewart00.

I'd like to share an idea about payroll taxes in QuickBooks.

QuickBooks allows you to record and track employee deductions. Therefore, payroll taxes are automatically calculated based on the taxable amounts provided by the state agencies. 

Also, you can contact our payroll support for assistance in making any adjustments to your taxes.

This is not for sales tax.  This is a discount for paying Missouri payroll withholdings on time/early.  

My CPA explained she cannot access my payroll settings, and explained there should be a "discount button" I need to choose there.  She said it doesn't look like I've been getting my discount for paying my withholding taxes on time.  I can't seem to find the switch to turn on the discount.

I'll help with your question about state payroll taxes, userpstewart00.

Are you referring to Missouri Compensation Deduction for withholding taxes? Let me share the steps on how you can select this option. Here's how:

2. Proceed to the Taxes section and click State Taxes - MO.
3. Look for Compensation Deduction and check the box for Check to apply the compensation deduction to tax payments.
4. Click OK.

How do you do this in Desktop Version 2020 or 2021?

How do you do the "Compensation" from Missouri Tax (to deduct for a timely payment)?
