Why is my NH UI and Admin Contr for 3rd Q payment showing as unpaid when I used QB to generate the report, and it correctly showed zero due? I trace the $2.77 owed to a paycheck in July, yet I hit threshhold in 2nd qtr. How do I get rid of this?
I would do a report for year-to-date and make sure the amount is still showing that the employee overpaid the $2.77. Sometimes it is just in the wrong period for some reason (a void and reissue with a wrong date for instance can affect 2 quarters but the year-to-date shows it balanced out). More closely examine the 2nd quarter and 3rd quarter reports, since this is an issue in a July paycheck.
If you are sure you don't owe this, then you need to do a payroll liability adjustment. Go to the Payroll menu, submenu item Payroll Tax and Liabilities, and select Adjust Liabilities.
Make sure you select the employee and item, and that you go into the "Accounts Affected" area and select the right accounts.
Doublecheck the above-mentioned reports and see it it fixes it. It is too easy to double the error if your credits and debits are reversed. You can go back to the adjustment easily and reverse.

Karen thank you for answering. I have had some problems with this since I upgraded to '09 at the end of last year. It is actually the employer contribution, not employee that is $2.77. It just randomly generated the number on a paycheck in July for some reason. I did a ytd report, and am sure i don't owe the money. i am at one employee right now, so it is easy to figure out. i will go ahead and do the liab. adjustment to get rid of it. thanks.
