Welcome back to the QuickBooks Community, lynn63. I can see that things have been challenging for you in finding the right support team to assist with what you need. I'll ensure you'll be routed to the right person to help you in updating a specific liability account and organize it accurately.

QuickBooks depends on the information your third-party app shares. Since the settings you want to manage are within Guideline, I extremely suggest contacting them to understand how to make changes in a liability account for Guideline deferrals and how it works with our program.

You can visit this website to find the specific phone number and email address so you'll be able to contact the Guideline Team.

Lastly, I'm adding this article so you're able to see how you can set up manual payroll in QBDT without a payroll account: Set up manual payroll without a subscription in QuickBooks Desktop.
