Hello,
I am using an outside payroll service and I have my gratuity in the other current liabilities, but am I suppose to have a place to put it to when it gets paid?
Hello, susanhd.
Liabilities are the company's payable. You can create a check to record this transaction in QuickBooks Desktop and choose the Liability account when paying it.
Here's how:
Since you're using a non-intuit payroll service, you'll need to include these liabilities when entering payroll data in QuickBooks Desktop to make your books accurate. If you need more details in handling gratuity paid outside QuickBooks, I'd suggest to consult and work with your accountant.

Hello,
So when I input the credit card charges from the day into my deposit I should put the tips in the other liability account, then when it gets paid I take it out of the same account?
Welcome back, susanhd.
Yes, you'll want to input tips in the gratuity account you created solely for tips and you can use the same account when it gets pad. Nevertheless, I'd still suggest consulting your accountant for more expert advice in handling tips and gratuity.
