How do I record a payment I made online to the state?

Question:

How do I record a payment I made online to the state?

Resolution:

Enter the check as a hand disbursement and use a check number that does not conflict with your hand check numbers or computer checks. In the memo field you can enter whatever information is pertinent to your online payment such as payment confirmation number. The advantage of entering such items as hand disbursements is that they will appear in the Check Reconciliation programs when doing your bank statement.
