payroll totals

[beaconbookkeep]

I'm using QB Payroll.
How in QB can I pull up a quick summary of payroll items for a prior month. For example, the total Federal Withholding, Social Security, Medicare, and State Withholding for July 2006
I know there's a Payroll Liability Balances report, but if the taxes have been paid, then the totals show up as -0- for each tax category. I want to go back and see what the totals were before the tax was paid.
Please advise, and thanks

If it is just the Payroll liability items, use the Payroll Liability report. Click Modify and change the "Display Columns by" to Month and the date for last month. Click Filters in Choose Filters, click Names and choose All Employees.
You can also set the Display Columns to Quarter and date to this year to show the liabilities for this year. If you choose All Vendors for Names it will show the amount paid for the selected time period.

If you're on Pro or higher, I recommend using the "summarize payroll data in Excel" feature for reports that are MUCH more user friendly than the QuickBooks ones.
