How to apply an invoice in accounts receivable to a vendor in accounts payable.

You can invoice national accounts to the manufacturer. This will create an invoice to the manufacturer in accounts receivable. They will normally issue a credit to your account which needs to be used in accounts payable. You could also have an invoice in accounts receivable that you trade out with a voucher in accounts payable.

1. Do a cash receipt for the credit in accounts receivable and change the general ledger number to a clearing general ledger account number.

2. Enter a negative voucher to the vendor in accounts payable and use the same clearing general ledger account number.

The invoice will show a zero balance in accounts receivable and you will have a credit voucher in accounts payable to use during the check routines.
