First, please do not post in all capital letters. That is interpreted as shouting.
Second, to record a payment of the tax to the tax authority, just enter a payment transaction. Select the tax liability account (whatever you have named it) on the line item. Do not apply any tax code, because your payment to the authority is not a taxable event.
