How to set up accounts?

Did you use the drop down arrow to choose from the chart of accounts already set up?

I did try to use the set up accounts, but the same thing happen when I try to input accounting data to the account.

Therefore whenever I try to input data to the account QuickBook will info me that the account was not set up.

If you used a standard set of accounts when you set up your file, you may have accounts that were not included and you will, therefore, have to add this account and possibly others.  In addition, there may be accounts in the list that you don't need and can inactivate or delete.

Hi Account822,

To find your list of accounts, go to LISTS and choose "Chart of Accounts"

At the bottom left, click on ACCOUNT and choose "New"

This will allow you to setup new accounts.

Note: you may also "Edit" and "Delete" accounts from this screen.

Hope this helps!

I had found my solution to the problem.

The answer is that I should not use account number in my set.

Once I cancelled using account number, all the account were usable.
