Question

Something strange had been happening to my quickbooks. When I enter a bill, instead of creating an entry in my accounts payable creates an entry in a stock certificate payable account. How do i correct this?

the solution does not work. I cannot use Account payable on the detail portion of the bill. The category has to be an expense account

My problem is that when I enter a new bill with the correct expense account in the category, the bill credits the wrong accounts payable account. It credits "Stock certificate payable" instead of Account Payable

Please see error on the solution you provided

The question is why does the system use "stock certificate payable" instead of "accounts payable" when I creat a new bill. What is strange is that it suddenly started to do that. How do I fix this so that "account payable" is credited when I enter a new bill.

Not really. They simply told me they were looking into it and that I may want to merge the accounts payable accounts into one account account payable account. That is was I ended up doing and it solve the problem.
