UNKNOWN ESTIMATED TAX DEBIT

Let's record your tax payments together to maintain precise financial records, Dan. 

QuickBooks Self-Employed won't automatically record tax payments. If you connected your online banking and created rules for automatic categorizing, this could be the reason.

To fix this, we can exclude the tax payment in the Transactions menu so you can record the actual amount.

Here's how:

1. Head over to the Transactions section on the left panel.
2. Look for the tax payment and click the drop-down arrow to expand the details.
3. Put a checkmark on the Exclude box.
4. Hit Save.

To record tax payments:

1. Go to the Transactions menu. Select Add transaction.
2. Enter the date or fiscal year for the quarterly federal tax payment in the description field.
3. Type in the amount and the date you made the payment.
4. Choose Select a category, then Taxes.
5. Pick Estimated Taxes. Hit Save.

Now, you can successfully record the actual tax payments. Feel free to share with us if you have further questions about this. Take care, Dan!
