Setting up an accrual account for items received without a supplier bill
When you record items received without a supplier bill, you need to allocate the anticipated purchase amount to the accounts payable accrual account.
If the account does not exist, you need to create it. The account should be a liability account named, for example, AP Accrual - Inventory. For information on creating an account, see Setting up accounts.
Before you can allocate transactions to this account, you need to make it the default linked account for items received without a supplier bill.
