How to match a liability check with an electronic payment check?

zipswich · ‎January 27, 2019

Suppose a tax liability check is created and it is called check A, then an electronic payment to IRS is made and downloaded from a bank as check B.

How can I match check A with check B?

You have this Twice, now. That makes it hard for us, your peer users that volunteer here, to help in Two Locations.

Here is the Sequence;

Use the Payroll Center to Pay Liabilities and this "check" is the Bookkeeping of the EFTPS entry you made, so use EFTPS for the Check Number.

Now get the banking and it finds the Match for you.

Hello, zipswich.

You can delete check A if you didn’t print and issue the check. Moreover you can record electronic payment (if it’s made outside QuickBooks) by entering historical tax payments.

For detailed steps about this process, please check this article: https://community.intuit.com/articles/1764478-enter-historical-tax-payments-in-quickbooks-desktop-pa....

Thank you for the tip. This question is related to another question posted prior to this one.

I can delete A, but B is counted against the liability, so the liability is still there and it messes up the P & L report, etc.

How should deal with B that is downloaded from a bank that is linked to EFTPS for tax payment?
