Helping you out with finalizing your pay history in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) is my priority, WestCoast. I understand that you did everything you could to resolve this matter.
There are various reasons why the red amount or overdue may appear on your pay liabilities regardless if you have paid the amount already. You’ll want to check out this article for those several reasons and fixes to be done: Fix overdue or red scheduled liabilities in QuickBooks Desktop.
Since you mentioned that the amount matches the amount calculated from the payroll history. I’d recommend updating your QuickBooks Desktop company file to the latest release including your tax table. This will stay compliant with paycheck calculations.
If the issue persists, we can proceed to other troubleshooting steps to ensure you get back to business seamlessly and create your scheduled payroll. Thus, we can utilize the Verify and Rebuild data utilities. That way, we can verify and correct your company file's most typical data errors.
Here's how:
- Go to Window, then Close All.
- From the File menu, click Utilities.
- Select Rebuild Data.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to back up your data.
- When the tool finishes, select OK.
- Go to the File menu, then click Utilities.
- Click Verify Data, then choose Rebuild Now once QuickBooks finds an issue with your company file.
