ACH Vendor

Has anyone found away to indentify ACH vendor from check vendors.

When I go to cut manual checks on a weekly basis, I have to remember who is an ACH and who is a check vendor.  It would be nice to go to "pay bill" and QB to be able to only show vendors who get paid by check.

ACH Vendor

Hello @PJ281,

 

At this time, there isn't an option to identify your vendors base on the method of paying them when writing your checks. You'll want to consider manually identifying them as what you have been doing.

 

Here's an article you can read to learn more about writing a check: Create, modify, and print checks.

 

But don't worry, I'll pass along your request to our developers so they'll know of your need to automatically identify your vendor's payment method. For updates, you can always visit the following articles below:

Lastly, I've also included this helpful article in case you wanted to create recurring checks for your vendor payments: Create an automatic recurring payment (check) to a vendor.

 

Should you need any additional assistance while managing your chart of accounts, you can leave a comment below. I'll be sure to get back to you.

Is there any updates on this topic?

 

This is pretty elementary and its extremely frustrating that QB Desktop does not have the capabilities of assigning vendors with a default payment method.

 

If I am recording an ACH payment made to our Vendor, I should be able to go to the Vendor's Pay Bills - Select Vendors setup to receive payments via Check / or Credit Card / or ACH. When ACH is selected, the bills open to pay should only show ACH Vendors with open invoices due. Same goes for the other methods of payment.

 

If this feature is available please let me know how I can get this setup to work with our account.


Thanks,

Morgan

ACH Vendor

I know this is an old post but I was having the same issue and finally decided to set up new payment terms to distinguish between the check and ach vendors.  Example:  For Net 30, I have:

Net 30

Net 30 - ACH

Net 30 - CC

I have updated all vendors with the appropriate terms for each so I know which ones accept credit cards, ACH, and the standard N30 is for check vendors.

Is there any field we can use to bring into the Unpaid bills report? We tried using vendor type, but it doesn't populate on the unpaid bills report.

I can share some information about the report that you're trying to generate, @CharC.

 

When you run the Unpaid Bills report, you can go to the Filters button to set or choose the Vendor Types that you'll include in the report. However, the option to display it in the report by adding it as a column is currently unavailable. That will be a great addition to the current features that we have. 

 

I invite you to provide input to our developers so that this feature can be added to future releases. Rest assured, I'll do the same on my end.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Select Send Feedback Online from the Help menu.
  2. Click the Product Suggestion from the drop-down menu.
  3. Fill out the on-screen instructions in the QuickBooks Feedback window.
  4. After that, click Send Feedback.
