Hello Handson, 

 

Welcome to the Community page, 

 

The issue you have an expense this year but the money going out is for last year? was it a bill? or an immediate transaction? eg an expense you are paying off something you got from a supplier? If the account has not been reconciled then you should be able to match it if you have created the expense manually.

Its a manual expense straight from the bank. I have reconciled the bank. I think I need to do a journal for 2020 creditors but am not sure if this is correct.
