Welcome to the QuickBooks Community dbrice3123,

 

I'd love to help you out with fixing your tax liability payments. In order to best assist you, some additional details would be helpful, such as whether this is a payroll liability payment or if you're attempting to record a sales tax payment. This is a public forum, so sharing sensitive details isn't recommended here, but if you'd like to expand on the issue, outlining what steps you took to record the partial payment as well as what happened after you recorded it, I'd be able to provide you with the best course of action to proceed. I'd like to provide you with a couple of resources that may help in the meantime.

 

To record a partial payment or an instalment against your sales tax liabilities against your most recent return, you can follow the steps below:

 

  1. Navigate to the Taxes menu and select Sales Tax
  2. Hit the New button to the right of the page.
  3. From the dropdown, select Instalment.
  4. Choose the account that you'd like the payment to be made from, as well as the date of the payment. 
  5. Specify the filing date and amount that you'll be paying.
  6. Hit Record instalment.

 

I'd like to leave you with a few articles on sales tax payments that may be helpful to review:

 

 

If it's a partial payment against your Payroll tax liabilities that you're looking to record, I want to point you in the direction of a reply I made to a similar inquiry that outlines all of the steps required to record a partial payment towards your payroll taxes. Check it out here.
