Hi joe-diadamo,
Welcome to Community! It's important that your sales tax payments are recorded accurately in QuickBooks Online. I'd be happy to provide some insight here!
When you set up Sales Tax in QuickBooks Online, the associated accounts will be automatically created in your chart of accounts. However, it sounds like you may have created another sales tax account. If this is the case, you'll need to move the associated transactions from the account you created, to the default sales tax account created by QuickBooks. To do this, you can create a journal entry or merge the accounts.
If you experience the same outcome, please don't hesitate to contact us outside of Community, for personal assistance.
