Hi Sheila, 

Thanks for your quick reply. I understand I can do this as a journal entry, but why would I have to do manual journal entries to zero the instalment account when QB has the information that I have paid the instalment? 

It seems like this part is missing from QB and my PAYG Instalment Liabilities account will keep going further negative for eternity unless I manually create journal entries each time I pay the BAS. 

Is this a 'feature' that QB can work on? 

It seems weird that QB would force me to make these routine manual journal entries.
