Bills paid via bank not attached to quickbooks

Let's create a journal entry and pay the bills to keep your records in order, Kate. I'm here to help and show you the steps to accomplish each one.

To add the entry: 

1. In your company, press the New menu in the upper right and select Journal entry under Other.
2. Key in the correct date in the Journal date box.
3. In the Account section, go to the first line and input Accounts Payable in the Debits column.
4. On the second line, head to the Credits column and select the Equity account. 
5. Click Save and close.

Next, link the bill and journal entry. Here's how:

1. Tap the New menu and choose Pay bills under Suppliers. 
2. On the Pay Bills page, choose the bill you're working on and make sure the total payment is 0.00. 
3. Press the Save and close button. 

I've attached some resources that discuss in detail how to swap the debits and credits on the entry as well as manage your bills and record payments:

• Enter and manage bills and bill payments
• Reverse or delete a journal entry

In addition, this link covers a variety of topics on how to handle supplier-related transactions: Expenses and vendors.

Keep me posted if you have other concerns or questions about bills and managing your vendor entries. I'll get back to help you the best that I can.
