Use the Add Liability dialog to add a new unpaid payroll agent or tax agent liability without creating it through routine payroll processing. Once you have made the appropriate selections in this dialog, clicking OK creates a new liability record for the client, vendor, and item.
Choose Actions > Manage Payroll Liabilities and click the Add Liability button.
