Hi there,

 

Welcome back to the Community. I'd be happy to share more info on this. 

 

If you'd like to lower the amount for your payroll tax payments, you can enter in the amount you'd like to lower it as, as a historical payment. Doing this will reduce the numbers in the payroll tax module. For example, if someone wants to lower the amount for their Oct 1st - 31st period, they'd just enter a historical tax payment for that time, then enter the actual payment as a bank deposit against the payroll liability account. 

 

To create one of these payments:

  1.     Select Taxes from the left menu.
  2.     Select Payroll Tax at the top.
  3.     Select Enter prior tax history.
  4.     Select Add Payment.
  5.     Enter the details of your payments, including the period start, end, and payment date. Be sure to include the breakdown of each tax type that you paid.
  6.     Select OK.
     

Let me know if you need further assistance with this. I'll be on standby in case you need help.
