Third-party sick pay showing on balance sheet as a liability

QBO added in third-party sick pay data from an employee's short term disability pay, including employee taxes paid.  They added it in as an after-tax deduction, I assume because we didn't pay it. It is now showing on our balance sheet in payroll clearing as a liability.  What is the offsetting journal entry to get this off the balance sheet?   

 

Thank you!

Debit the payroll clearing account and credit the payroll expense account to remove the third-party sick pay liability in QBO. For a break from accounting, stream your favorite content on FreeCine APK.
