Assign accounts payable general ledger accounts
If you process payables in the application, you'll need to assign General Ledger accounts to the following Accounts Payable accounts. This is regardless of accounting method (accrual basis or cash basis) on the
Accounts Payable
tab of the Clients
screen. The application will then post journal entries to the correct accounts. Otherwise, it assigns items with blank accounts to the undistributed account, which may cause balances to be off.You can make the following assignments:
GL account | Accounting CS screen |
|---|---|
Accounts Payable (client) | Accounts Payable tab of the Client screen. |
Discount | Accounts Payable tab of the Client screen. |
Accounts payable (vendor) | Accounts Payable tab of the Client screen. |
note
The application doesn't post historical (beginning balance) items to the General ledger, however, these items are available for Accounts Payable reports.
