QuickBooks can also help you not forget a recurring accounts payable bill. Memorized bills work best if the amount being paid is the same from month to month (or whatever frequency you set). An example is your rent payment.
To memorize a recurring accounts payable transaction, follow these steps:
Memorized transactions can automate repetitive transactions or serve as a reminder
to enter the transaction.
To manually enter the transactions (if they’re not set to Automate Transaction Entry) from the menu bar, select Lists, Memorized Transaction List, or press Ctrl+T on your keyboard to quickly call up the list. Select the group or individual transactions you want to post by double-clicking the group or individual item from the memorized transaction list.
If you clicked a memorized group, QuickBooks creates each of the transactions in the group, asking you to assign a transaction date globally to all the transactions in the group. Use the memorized transaction tool to save time and to remind yourself to pay those important recurring bills.
–> Note: If you assign the Automate Transaction Entry option for memorizing a transaction, QuickBooks provides a reminder dialog box that displays when you log in to the QuickBooks file. From the Enter Memorized Transactions dialog box, you can enter all the selected transactions, select those you want to enter, or enter them all later, as shown here:
