Existing account not showing in General journal?

SUGGESTED

I’m doing year-end adjustment. Need to add an entry in accounts payable (2010). When entering the account number in General Journal, it says that this account doesn't exist when I see it in my chart. What is going on? How do I make it work? TY

    Hi Sylvie:

    You cannot directly post to a linked account. You will need to put in an actual vendor purchase invoice transaction to add to the accounts payable account. Find out from your accountant which vendor(s) need to be entered into payables. Hope this helps!
