Thanks for getting back to us and for sharing some clarifications, @molbrez.

You can record the bill payment using check as the payment method. Then use a clearing account in paying the bills. Let me show you how.

1. Go to the Vendors menu
2. Click Pay Bills.
3. Select the checkboxes of the bills you want to pay from the table.
4. Enter the date you paid the bill.
5. Select the payment method as Check.
6. From the Account drop-down menu, select the clearing account. 
7. Then select Pay Selected Bills.

I’d also recommend working with your accountant for additional guidance and advice. This way, we can ensure your accounts stays accurate after recording this. If you’re not affiliated with one, you can visit our ProAdvisor page and we’ll help you find one from there.

I’ve also added these links that you can read for your future reference in managing your transactions and accounts:

Tag me in your reply if you have other concerns or questions about recording transactions in your software. I’ll be more than happy to work with you again. Keep safe!
