I just migrated to QB Online.  I have an S-Corp of which I am the only employee.  In QB Desktop, each month I would create a custom payroll liability payment for the federal and state payroll taxes. The actual payments are made electronically by my accountant, but I need to record them in Quickbooks on my end.  I do not have any other benefits to record (401K, Insurance, etc.).  I need to know how to do this in the online platform just as a bookkeeping task.

Hello TDesignVB,

 

Welcome to the Community! Once you have a payroll online subscription, here is what you need to do:

 

  1. In QBO, go to Taxes and select Payroll tax. 
  2. Select Pay Taxes and choose Record Payment for the tax you want to pay.
  3. Pick a payment date and complete the other details. 
  4. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete.
