Join nowOur pastor would like me to withhold tithe from their paycheck. Not clear how I do this in quickbooks (using desktop pro) and also get it recorded as income. I am used to using payroll withholding (liabilities) to pay taxes, etc via a check.

Hmm, I agree not ideal. Shows up as unclassified, don't see anyway to configure class for it. Guess it can be journaled to correct class.
Thanks for the quick response, @RDP2.
Good to hear that you agree with AlexV. I've got the steps here to ensure that your payroll item is labeled as classified in QuickBooks Desktop.
To start, I'd recommend modifying your class settings in your payroll preferences. Such that your employee's paychecks will tag to the appropriate class.
Follow the steps below:
After that, you'll need to reassign the correct class to apply it to the payroll taxes. Let me guide you on how.
Additionally, you run the Payroll Summary report to review the data, then sort it by employee or class. See the sample screenshot below for your reference.
For the complete instructions, check out this link: Tracking payroll expenses by class, department, or location.
In regards to the Journal Entry, I'd suggest consulting an accountant. They can help you from there. Also, to make sure your reports and filings are accurate.
