Batch Update for payments produces this result:
The highlighted Supplier control UUID is the default “Accounts Payable” UUID.
Expected result is 2001 for “Creditors” control (as per below) which has different UUID.
Batch Update worked well in my testing. Just make sure that the Supplier selected in the Payee field is linked to a control account that matches the line.1.account you’ve chosen.
Yes, thank you @Mabaega changing a supplier from the default control to a different control transfers the existing transaction amounts to the new control but does not change the control account in the existing payment transactions.
That’s a feature.
If you remember @AJD, we didn’t use to have to enter control accounts at all at one point, instead we used to enter Supplier or other tab accounts directly inside Account field in Batch operations and Manager sorted out where this should go.
This meant that:
- users don’t have to remember which account is part of which control account, and
- future changes of control account wouldn’t break previously entered transactions
That is still true but with a slightly different format.
