Hi @deycomin,

 

When you import your vendors via a CSV file, entering a negative opening balance for a vendor will result in a supplier credit. If it's amount you owe, it should be entered as a positive amount in the Opening Balance field.

 

You can mark the vendor in question as inactive so you can import it again, this time with the correct opening balance.

 

Here's how:

  1. Highlight the Expenses tab, then select Vendors.
  2. Search for the vendor in question.
  3. On the right-hand side of the vendor, click the down-arrow menu beside the Create bill link. Choose Make inactive.

Following the same process you did before, import the same vendor with the correct opening balance. 

 

Check out this article to take note of a list of things before importing vendors or customers: Import customer or vendor contacts from Outlook, Excel or Gmail.

 

Place your questions in the comments below, in case you have anything else. I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
