Account automatically goes to electronic payment

All of a sudden, in MYOB Business Pro, when I try to make a payment to a supplier, it is selecting a different account as my default account for payment (one that has never been used) & if I try & use the one I want to, it ticks it as an electronic payment. I don't even have electronic payments set up. When I untick it, it changes the account to the one I don't want. What is happening, how do I rectify it, please?

 

P.S. I don't even have an electronic clearing account set up in MYOB, so I'm not sure where they're going to!

    Hi Lisa

     

    I have had a look at the chart of accounts & I don't even have an electronic clearing account.

    I ended up just putting it to an old undeposited funds account that is not used anymore, just to not have it linked to my main account. That seems to have sorted it out for me to do the payments as per normal.

     

    Thanks

    Have a look in the accounts tab under managed linked accounts 

    change the bank account associated in the relevant tabs

     

    hope that helps

      So, do I have to set an account for electronic payments? I don't use electronic payments & I don't want to link an account to it, if it's going to do the same thing & not let me pay directly from the account when I need to.

        Hi

        i would use the default electronic payment clearing account in the linked accounts for electronic payment 

         

        you don't have to use electronic payment s at all though if that is your preference 

         

        just make sure you set the cheque or cash payment linked accounts to your chosen bank account 

         

        hope that helpsLisa
