We made a vendor payment and took the early payment discount. Later I noticed the account that was entered to post the discount to was incorrect. How do I change this? So far the only thing I have found is to delete the entire check transaction and re-enter it correctly. This method is a hassle since there were several from a few months ago and the bank has been reconciled.

Hi there StefanieHP,

 

It's important that all your transactions are correctly recorded so that your book can be well balanced. QuickBooks Desktop is a great tool able to help you keep track of amounts owed to suppliers so that you can pay them their balance. I can point you in the right direction for assistance with modifying the discount.

 

In order to know the best way to edit these accounts retroactively, I recommend reaching out to the QuickBooks Desktop support team. They'll be able to provide you with the ways this modification can be accomplished in order to get those transactions affecting the right accounts. You can reach them using the methods provided in the QuickBooks Desktop software support policies.
