You should set the AP account on the supplier to be the same as the account you book the debet value from the payment.
Using this approach as you do you should consult an accountant to do the right things.
We do not have the resources to help you with accountancy problems.

Joe,

When I allocate down payment to supplier invoice, In GL down payment -supplier account still show debit balance. actually, from accounting side practice when Down payment - supplier allocate to invoice it should be credited to reduce payable to supplier invoice.

Thanks

In FA it works al follows:
Register the Down Payment (this will also create a GL journal.
Register the Supplier Invoice. After that goto Allocate Supplier Payments or Credit Notes and pickup your Down Payment and allocate your supplier invoice and save it.
This will take care of everything.

Cr Down Payment - Supplier
( To Record Invoice receive and allocate down payment)

Allocations do not make any GL journals. Payments does. This is just as it should be. Ask an account for advise.
