How do I set up a Supplier G/L Account for entering into Bills?

Avril Southon

is there any way we can set-up a general ledger account that attaches to the supplier file and comes up automatically every time we enter a bill for them to reduce data entry errors?

Hi Avril, I am not sure if I have understood your question correctly, but if you turn on the Preference to Automatically recall information, Once you have entered a bill for the supplier, the same account will come up each time.  Go to Edit - Preferences - General - Automatically Recall Information.  Tick the Automatically Recall Box, and put a radial dot in the Prefill accounts for supplier based on past entries.  Hope this Helps.

Hi Avril,

Penny's answer should resolve any incorrect posting issue and tracking of the relevant Supplier to relevant accounts (eg those setup in items).  You can filter your reports to only show the relevant Supplier in the  associated GL accounts (Such as Accounts Payable and Purchases etc). Again If I have understood your question correctly.
