How Do Default Expense Accounts Work in Bills

Each line item on a bill posts to a Category/Account, which determines which expense account in your chart of accounts the cost is recorded against.

Steps

  1. On a bill's line item, use the Category/Account field to select where the cost should post.
  2. If the line uses a saved Item, the account may default automatically - verify it's correct.
  3. Change the Category/Account on any line as needed before approving the bill.

Good to Know

Sales invoice lines don't have an equivalent income/revenue account field - Category/Account is specific to bills (and receipts).
