I was trying to add last week payroll, from a different accounting program, into QB desktop and some checks are off a few cents. How do I correct this?

Thank you for adding a post here on the Community page, @seabird.

You have to record a payroll liability adjustment to correct the amount of your payroll checks.

Here's how:

1. Go to the Employees menu at the top menu bar, then select Payroll Taxes and Liabilities, and tap on Adjust Payroll Liabilities.
2. Use these tips to help complete the fields.
   • Use the same date as the last paycheck of the affected quarter. Use today's date if you’re working on the current quarter.
   • The Effective Date is used to calculate amounts on your 940 and 941 forms as well as the Payroll Liability Balances Report.
3. Select Employee Adjustment if the item you're adjusting is a company-paid item. It updates the YTD info reported on the employee W-2 form. And, choose Company Adjustment if you want the balance to be removed from the Payroll Liability Balances Report.
4. Select the employee.
5. Complete the Taxes and Liabilities fields.
6. Tap on Accounts Affected and then OK.
7. Repeat for other employees if you need to, and select OK.

I was able to adjust the liabilities, but the check totals have not changed.  They are off a few cents plus or minus.  How do I correct this when the bank feeds come through so the bank feed matches the check?

Hello again, @seabird. I can get you pointed in the right direction so you'd able to match transactions. 

When creating a payroll liability adjustment, the affected areas will be the report and tax form in which payroll checks won't change. If you'd want to match payroll checks with the downloaded data in the bank feeds, then you may need to create a transaction for the difference. Before doing so, I'd suggest consulting an accountant to help and guide how to record these work. Your accountant can provide more expert advice in dealing with this concern.

After that, you can now match your transactions. For guidance on how to add and match transactions, check this article: Add and match Bank Feed transactions in QuickBooks Desktop.
