I can share what accounts are affected when you create invoices in QuickBooks Online, allen15.

 

An Income and Accounts Receivable accounts for debtors are impacted when entering invoices. While Expense and Accounts Payable (A/P) accounts for creditors.

 

When you record the payment, make sure to select the correct creditors to zero out the balance.

 

If you're tracking transactions to different accounts, I recommend consulting your accountant. They can provide additional steps so you have accurate records on books.

 

If you need to edit the expense account assigned to creditors:

 

  1. Go to Expenses.
  2. Click Suppliers at the top.
  3. Select the creditor's name.
  4. Select Transaction List.
  5. Click on the opening balance bill created (this will be on the top transaction of the list).
  6. Once you have it opened, change the expense account in the detailed line item of the bill.
  7. Click Save.

Accounts Payable appears in the credit column of a transaction journal. This represents that the business still has a credit memo or balance due to the creditor.
