Hi there, Cyclo1808.

After creating a bill, you'll need to record a credit card charge. Then, create a bill payment and link the credit. Let me show you how:

Record Credit Card Charges

1. From the Banking menu, select Enter Credit Card Charges. 
2. Choose the Credit Card account and select Purchase/Charge. 
3. Enter the necessary information. 
4. Then, click the Expenses tab and choose Accounts Payable under the ACCOUNT column. 
5. Enter the Amount and then Save & Close. 

Bill Payment

1. Go to the Vendors menu and choose Pay Bills.
2. Locate the Bill created from the Purchase Order. 
3. Click on the Set Credit button and select the charge to link on the bill payment. 
4. Choose Credit Card as the Payment Method.
