Employer Payroll Tax Expense Account

I'm using QBO and running payroll - the Employer Taxes are being added to an expense account automatically. I'm not using QBO to actually pay the taxes, so when I enter a payroll tax payment it is also going into Payrol Tax expense account. I know I'll have to adjust the liability account at the end of the year, but it seems like something is incorrect here. Currently the expense account just shows double (at least) the payroll taxes, because there's nothing counter-acting the QBO entry for employer payroll taxes. 

 

In my experience QB Desktop did NOT automatically add this expense for me - can someone help me smooth this out?
