Apply a journal entry to a bill?

Hi there, @kbarte-1-directo. 

Thanks for reaching out. I hope you're having a great day so far.

It's important to keep in mind that Journal entries are the last resort for entering transactions. They let you move money between accounts and force your books to balance in specific ways. With that in mind, it's always best to consult with your accounting professional before making any changes to your account. If you don't have an accountant, don't sweat it. You can find one here in our Resource Center. 

In the meantime, you can use the steps I've included below to create a journal entry. For additional information about the debits and credits columns, check out Debit vs. credit accounting: The ultimate guide.

1. Select the + New button.
2. Choose Journal entry.
3. On the first line, select an account from the Account field. Depending on if you need to debit or credit the account, enter the amount in the correct column.
4. On the next line, select the other account you're moving money to or from. Depending on if you entered a debit or credit on the first line, enter the same amount in the opposite column.
5. Check the amounts - you should have the same amount in the Credit column on one line and the Debit column on the other. This means the accounts are in balance.
6. Enter information in the memo section so you know why you made the journal entry.
7. Hit Save and new or Save and close.
