HI I have not been able to work out how to enter payments to and from my liabilities account for TAX liabilities, to zero out liabilities each 1/4.
To get my bank account settlement to balance I recorded the last one as inter account transfer to my bank account from personal I know this is the incorrect way but needed to do a settlement and $ was in the account. Obviously my liabilities account did not change but I can not find it listing anywhere when trying receive or payment ??
Thank you
Just enter a payment and post a line item to your tax liability account. Note that the payment itself is not a taxable transaction, so no tax code is applied.

Thank you Tut, I had tried this way but there is no line for the account, I have renamed it and it still is not showing. If I add another line / name option line in the liability account will this be away around it ? or am I missing the way to activate showing the liability account ? thank you again
That is probably the issue. The built-in Tax payable account is a placeholder that is apparently necessary for software functionality. But you cannot use it as your actual tax liability account. You need to define your own, not just rename the default one.
And please don’t ask why this is. Many of the most experienced users have wondered and discussed this. We’ve not been enlightened.
Thank you so much Tut I will make these changes and delete the other short cut I make in the mean time. Love that you mentioned enlightenment on this 
it is one of my words for this year, and now we are enlightened on this topic.
Thank you again
What are you referring to? You never mentioned any shortcut. Please use terminology from the program so forum members can understand you.
sorry I don’t know the terminology, what I meant was the other way I recorded it to make it balance in bank account, I did a inter account.
After your advice I deleted the old transaction and created a new line in the liabilities section. Thank you
