Expensed Additional Cost Payables Clearing Account

Sage ERP Accpac Purchase Orders 6.0

Expensed Additional Cost Payables Clearing Account

This is the general ledger account that is used if you choose the option to create G/L entries for expensed additional costs in Purchase Orders.

If you create G/L entries in P/O, when you process the additional cost, Purchase Orders credits the payables clearing account and debits the expense account during day-end processing (or when you run Create Batch).

When you post the invoice in Accounts Payable, Sage ERP Accpac debits the payables clearing account and credits the payables control account.

If you do not choose the option to create G/L entries for non-inventory expenses in Purchase Orders, Sage ERP Accpac will generate G/L entries when the invoice is posted in A/P, and this account will only be used for job-related transactions.

Job-Related Additional Costs. Note that for job-related documents, Purchase Orders will always create G/L entries for expensed additional costs during posting — whether you select the option or not.

You can change the account number for individual transactions, as needed. You can also change the default account number in the Options form at any time.
