It's great to see a newly registered user of the Quickbooks Online (QBO) family. I'll lay down some information about the Accounts Payable account (AP) in QBO, nboy.
All the payables are posted in a single default AP account since QBO creates one for you when you set up your company. You can't place vendors in a different one. What we can do is assign a default expense category to each seller. Here's how:
- Go to Expenses and select Vendors.

- Click the vendor's name and tap the Edit button.

- Scroll down to the Accounting section.
- Choose an account in the Default Expense Category dropdown.
- Hit Save.
