Accounts Payable vendor

I have a vendor account with a zero balance; however there are general journal entries in the vendor record.

The journal entries result in a zero balance. How might I clear these transactions?

 It's my priority to ensure that your books are accurate, @vb-acctg.

 

Allow me to get you pointed in the right direction to get this journal entry concern sorted out.

 

You can delete the journal entries for your vendor to clear this out from your records since it's showing as zero balance. However, I'd recommend consulting your accountant before doing this. They'll be able to provide you the best course of action to be taken in this situation.

 

If you're accountant verified that you can delete them, you may follow these steps below:

  1. Click on Company at the top.
  2. Press on Make General Journal Entries
  3. Look for the journal entries of the vendor.
  4. Hit on the Delete button on the transaction
  5. Select on OK.
  6. Tick on Save and Close

I'm also sharing this link attached to give you more insights on how accounts payable works in the system in case you need it in the future: Learn about the Accounts Payable workflows you can use in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Let me know if you have any other questions. I'd be more than willing to lend you a hand. You have a great day!
