Clarification on why the account does not appear during payment, as this depends on the payment method you use. Are you paying via manual entry or receipt?
Steps
-
If you pay via manual entry
-
The account must be at the third level or deeper in the chart of accounts.
-
If the account is primary and has sub-accounts, the primary does not appear; you must select one of the sub-accounts.
-
Check that the account is not archived. If it is archived, restore it from the archive.
-
-
If you pay via receipt (collection or payment)
-
Ensure the account is added to the chart of accounts and has the “Can Pay and Collect” option enabled.
-
Go to Settings > Users.
-
Click Edit next to the user name.
-
Check the accounts that the user is allowed to use for payments and collections.
-
Select the appropriate accounts and click Save.
-
