Topic: not able to see the bank account

Dear Administrator,

please help us understand the setup/workflow of the following:

Problem:
1. Default  'Bank Charges Account' - '1060 Checking Account'  is not showing in the list of the accounts (account description drop down menu) during the Journal Entry
2. When i.e. we receive general community donations, we need to debit the Bank Account - 1060 with cash coming in, and credit Donation GL Account before we process the journal entry. The challenge is that there is no 1060 Bank Account listed to be used in Journal Entry.

Would you also define the 'Bank Charges Account', as we maybe somewhat confused what it represents.

Thank you for your help.

Re: not able to see the bank account

You will have to log in as an administrator to access bank GL accounts during Journal Entry. You should otherwise  consider using the bank deposit/payment entry instead.

Re: not able to see the bank account

Dear Administrator,

we are using the admin access to navigate the script. We are still not able to view the default account 1060 - Checking Account when performing the Journal Entries. All other Asset GL accounts are listed in the drop down menu.

Please helps us understand what we can change/do to correct this problem.

Our settings are as follows:

['Setup >   System and General GL Setup"]
     Bank Charges Account:     1060 Checking Account

[Banking and General Ledger > Bank Accounts]
     Bank     - Chequing Account     - USD     - 1060 Checking Account
     Petty Cash account     - Cash Account     - USD     - 1065 Petty Cash

[Banking and General Ledger > GL Accounts]
     1060 Checking Account
     Account Code: 1060
     Account Code 2:
     Account Name: Checking Account
     Account Group: 1  CURRENT ASSETS
     Account Tags: no active tags defined
     Status: Active



Thank you for looking into this problem.

Re: not able to see the bank account

If the 1060 GL account is used as bank account  it cannot be used in journal. Use Bank Deposit/Payment page instead, or do not use it as bank account.
