Great day, @CheeryLily. We're glad to hear that your initial issue about the missing paychecks has been resolved. Yet, I understand that other concern arises, such as overdue paychecks and missing tax payments. It's our pleasure to provide you with help today and fix this together.
Before anything else, I'd like to share insights into why there are overdue paychecks behind being paid on time. After that, we'll proceed to the resolution steps.
Even after you have paid the scheduled payroll on time, there's still a possibility the status will appear as overdue. It might be of incorrect payroll schedule of an employee or outdated payroll. You can follow the process below to fix this.
Let's start by updating your payroll tax table to the latest release to provide up-to-date, accurate calculations for federal and supported state taxes and payroll tax forms. Next, edit the payroll schedule to zero out the overdue. Here's how:
- Click Payroll Center from under the Employees tab.
- Select the payroll that shows an overdue status under the Employees Payroll menu.
- Now from the Payroll Schedules drop-down list, choose Edit Schedule.
- Change the paycheck dates and pay period dates and hit OK.
Once done, review and change the schedules for those employees who need modification. After that, delete the payroll schedule for an employee that's not in use.

Regarding your missing tax payments, if this is the 942 tax payment. There are reasons why it won't show. You can check the list below:
- There's a liability check created that covers the amount of the missing liability.
- Overpayment of the liability.
- Your liability is mapped to a different account, not for payroll.
- The liability account use is marked inactive in QuickBooks.
- When creating a liability check, the starting or ending period is incorrect.
However, if all of your tax payments aren't showing, this means you have one more tax item that doesn't have payment frequency selected. For example, monthly, quarterly, or annually. To get this fix, click the Go to Schedule Payments link in the message and then select payment frequencies for any tax where they're missing.
Note that this can happen if you add a new tax and don't schedule payments for the tax or if you've previously scheduled the payment. But, the governing agency changes the schedule options.
However, I recommend contacting Desktop Payroll support to ensure your payroll and tax liabilities are calculated and formatted correctly.
