Hi @Sandy Burleigh,

 

I'm glad to see you dropping by here in the Community. I can show you how to make changes to the payment method for your vendors in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

For users who pay bills online with the QuickBooks Desktop product, you need to set up the payment options during your first bill. If you need to make changes to the delivery method, you can go to the settings of your Bill Pay.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Within Bill Pay, select Settings located on the page header.
  2. Click Vendors and scroll through the list to locate the correct vendor.
  3. Select the Vendor then select Delivery Methods.
  4. Press the more options menu (...) to edit the delivery method you want (ACH Bank Transfer or Check Delivery).
  5. Select Edit, then input the new delivery information if necessary.
  6. When you’re done, select Save.

 

For more information, you can also visit this article about setting up the vendor for online payments (scroll down to Paying your first bill😞 Pay bills online from QuickBooks Desktop.

 

However, if you're not using Online Bill Pay and only entering payments for recording purposes, go to the vendor's profile. From there, customize the payment settings (see screenshot below).

 

 

Let us know if you still have more questions about managing vendor payment methods by leaving a reply. Take care, and have a great rest of the day.

I am looking to store this information as part of the vendor master; so that when I run the aging I can see how much in checks, ACH, Wires, ETC

Thanks for the additional details you've provided, @Sandy Burleigh.

 

I'll share some insights about storing preferred payment methods for vendors in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) and help you send feedback or product recommendations to help improve the features and your experience using our product.

 

For the time being, the option to store vendor-preferred payment methods is unavailable in QBDT. However, you can select the payment method when paying your vendors so you'll see the appropriate data you need once you pull up aging reports.

 

On the other hand, I can see how the benefit of being able to store vendor-preferred payment methods would aid you in managing your expense transactions with QBDT. With this, I would encourage you to send suggestions or product recommendations. We'll take them as opportunities to improve the various features of our products.

 

Your valuable feedback will be forwarded and reviewed by our Product Development team and will help improve your experience while using the program. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Help menu.
  2. Choose Send Feedback Online.
  3. Click on Product Suggestion.
  4. Click on the drop-down for Type of Feedback and select Product Suggestion.
  5. Select the Product Area.
  6. Then enter your thoughts and suggestions.
  7. Once done, select Send Feedback. 

 

Please feel free to leave a comment below if you have other feature concerns or questions about managing vendor transactions in QBDT. I'm always ready to help. Take care, @Sandy Burleigh.
