If you're looking to record your bill payments, you need to record the bills first..
Let me show you how:
Click on the Plus (+) icon.
Under Vendors, select Bill.
Enter the necessary details for the bill.
Click Save and close.
To record a bill payment, you have a couple of options. You either open a specific bill then click the Make payment button on it. You also have the option to click the Plus (+) icon then select Pay Bills.
