Hi Princess R...

 

This trick does not work anymore as "Chq Payments" is not linked anywhere that I can find.

That said I can not find HOW to change the setup to a preferred bank account number and not use the default of Code 11000

    Hi Warren01,

     

    To update the preferred bank account and avoid the default (e.g., code 1100), you can follow these steps:

     

    1. Check the linked bank account:

    • Go to Setup > Linked Accounts > Accounts & Banking.
    •  Review the bank account for Cheque Payments (or similar). 
    • Update this to the correct account you wish to use.

    2. Confirm the account in the Chart of Accounts:

    • Go to Accounts > Accounts List.
    • Locate the preferred bank account to ensure it's active and ready for use.

    3. Review and Save:

    • Ensure all changes are correct.
    • Save the changes to update the system settings.

    For more detailed guidance, you can refer to this link.

     

    Regards,

    Sai
