I am attempting to receive items against a PO (USD) in Quickbooks Enterprise.  I am getting an error message to select a different type of account for this line - you can only select an AP or AR account on the first line of a journal entry and it can only be used once in the same transaction.

 

I have not seen this message before - how can I get around this??

The error you're error you're getting is to inform you about selecting the appropriate accounts when creating the journal entry.
