Specifies the number of the general ledger, customer, vendor, or bank account to which a balancing entry for the journal line will posted (for example, a cash account for cash purchases).

To see the existing account numbers in the chart of accounts or the customer, vendor or bank accounts, choose the field. The contents of the Account Type field determine which account numbers are shown.

Important
There are VAT fields associated both with the Balancing Acc. No. and with the Account No. Therefore you should be careful only to define VAT associated with one of the account numbers.
