Choose account numbers (GL Numbers) that go with each withholding. Most should be assigned to a liability account, but there may be cases (such as child care paid by an employee) where a revenue account is appropriate. Account numbers are created in your Chart of Accounts.

  1. Select a Category, like Federal from the drop down list (top left).
  2. Assign a GL Account number to each item in the category such as Federal EIC, Federal Income Tax, etc.
  3. Click Save.
