hi, how do i assign a chart of account default to a vendor? thanks! -todd
Good day to you, @toddlerner.
The option to set a default account for vendors is unavailable in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) for Mac.
Rest assured our engineering team is always looking for ways to improve our software. I let them know about this so they’ll consider adding this feature in the future updates.
In the meantime, you’ll want to check our Product Updates page regularly. This way, you stay current of the latest news and updates happening in QuickBooks.
Let me also add this article that can walk you through the steps in reconciling your accounts effectively in your QBDT for Mac software: Reconcile bank and credit card accounts (Mac).
If you have other concerns or questions about managing your QBDT for Mac software, you can always post a reply in this thread with more details. I’ll be around to lend a hand.
hi jasroV, thanks for the info – it looks like if i, for example, write a check to a vendor, then the next time i write that vendor a check the same account is used as a default, is that right? if so, then that helps the cause :)
Hi toddlerner!
Yes, you're right. QuickBooks pre-enters the accounts or items you used in the last transaction, so only have to change a few things like the amount or the memo. We've also received great feedback from other users about this feature, and thanks for sharing yours.
Feel free to reach back out if you have additional questions. You can also check out the references for QB Mac on the QuickBooks Support page. Have a good one!
