Hi justin96,

 

Thanks for posting in the Community!

 

You can correct the figures in the Accounts Payable using a journal entry in QuickBooks Online. However, to know the balancing accounts on the journal, I recommend contacting your accountant to help you check the correct account to use. That way, we can avoid messing up your books since this goes back to 2021FY.

 

If you don't have an accountant, you can check this link to find one near your area: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/au/find-a-proadvisor/
