Q: Converting Cheques to Bill Payments

Sep 19, 2006 2 Replies

Hi,



My complete and utter disorganization has resulted in me entering bill payments, for a company I deal with, in two different ways.



Some times I would just enter the cheque (part shipping expense, part GST), for others I would enter the bill and then use the bill payment feature to issue a cheque.



So, when I search for all the cheques I have made to this vendor, 10 come up as Cheques and 5 come up as Bill Payments.



My problem, is when I pull up the balance detail on the vendor, you really don't get an accurate history of what has happened, as none of the entries that were entered as cheques show up.



I'm wondering if there is anyway that I can change all the cheques to bill payments, so that as I go through and enter all the bills, I can allocate the appropriate cheque against each one, as they are all paid.



Keeping in mind that the majority of the cheques have been cleared against a bank reconciliation, so I'm a little worried about just deleting them all and reissuing after I have entered the bill.



Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.



Regards,



A

A-Just change the account distribution on the CHECQUE payments to "Accounts Payable". Then, when you enter the vendor bill, you can go through "Pay Bills" and allocate each check payment to the proper invoices. I'm assuming that your version works the same way as US version in this matter. HTH
