Linking suppliers to accounts

Is it possible to link a supplier to an account in Quickbooks

2007/2008 so, for example, when I enter a cheque for Mobil, the account field is pre-filled with Automobile Expenses?

Turn on the preference (Edit>Preferences>General>Personal Preferences) for recalling last entry for this name.

You will at least get the last account/s used for the supplier.

However, you cannot link a supplier to a particular account.

Starting with version 2008 vendors can be linked to a maximum of 3 general ledger accounts. Use the Account Prefill Tab when setting up the vendor.

Thanks for the heads up. In Australia, the recently released 2008/09 version is based on the US 2007 release of QuickBooks. 2007/08 was based on an earlier release (the one prior to the SQL release in the US).

2008/09 is the first version on SQL.

In my response to the OP, I assumed that he was using the Australian

2007/08 version because of his use of the nomenclature.

I am sure there will be many Australian users who will look forward to the account prefill feature. In 2008/09, it is already a preference to "Prefill accounts for supplier based on past entries" which I assume has been enhanced by the feature that you have mentioned above.
