We deducted a garnishment for an emp, then go an order to discontinue. We got the employee his reimbursement by entering the garnishment as a positive number the next week. BUT the payroll liab screen still shows we need to remit it. How can we fix?
under employees, payroll taxes and liability, you can choose to adjust the payroll liability. Choose the payroll item, put in the dollar amount of adjustment and click on "accounts affected". you have a choice not to affect the chart of accounts or to affect it. I always choose not too and then if the balance sheet is wrong, I make a journal entry to correct.
