Please advise the reason why the balance sheet Report for Accounts Payable Amount is different from Account Payable Ageing Summary Report

I'm here to help you understand why there might be differences between the balance sheet report for the accounts payable amount and the accounts payable aging summary report in QuickBooks, Regina. 

 

The differences between your Balance Sheet and Accounts Payable Aging report can arise due to payments made towards outstanding bills.

 

The Accounts Payable Aging report, along with other Accounts Payable Detail reports, excludes paid bills. Therefore, although it may appear as a discrepancy, both statements are accurate since the paid bill is no longer considered open. If needed, you can generate and customize a Supplier Balance report's date that matches the information on the Balance Sheet. 

 

As an alternative, you have the option to customize the Accounts Payable Aging report to reflect the As of Report Date. By doing so, the report will align with the Balance Sheet, assuming both reports utilize the accrual reporting method for the same date range.

 

Furthermore, I have compiled a selection of pertinent articles that you can refer to for assistance in managing your reports. These resources provide valuable insights on personalising your statements within QBO.
