I have set up a sub account to Trade Creditors, for proforma prepayments. When the bill arrives and I match the payment to the bill, the net effect on the supplier account is correct. However, for the Trial Balance, it shows a balance for the bill under TC and a negative balance in the proforma sub account. I want them to clear both sides. It is misleading and makes no sense.
I have read that there is only one default TC account in QBO, but it has allowed me to create a sub account, so why do they not interact and net off on the BS? And yes the 'overall' balance for Trade Creditors on the BS is correct, but when looking at the independent items, they should be showing the correct balances too, and they simply don't.
