Credit Card Transactions as Expense

Hi there,

I am new to using Quickbooks online. I am using Sage50 in a different company before. For the credit card transactions, both companies set it up as suppliers which is fine. However, in QBO, they are entering the overheads (gas, entertainment, etc.) as different supplier so currently, we have 1000+ suppliers. We would no twant this to increase anymore and I think it is logical not to put this company expenses as suppliers. Since the credit card is already a supplier in QBO, I tried entering an expense but it is not showing in the balance. I tried to post it as bill and it did show in the balance. My question is, is it fine to post these credit card expenses as bill instead of expense so it will clearly show in the balance of the credit card (as supplier) and we can allocate the payment accordingly?

 

Thank you so much in advance everyone!
