In earlier versions, you could change the account type for the main account and the offset account for payment journals for customers (payment receipts) and vendors (payment distributions). By preventing changes to the main account type and limiting changes to the offset account type for payment journals, this feature helps clarify the purpose of payment journals, whether for customers or vendors, and might help prevent errors that could occur if these account types were inappropriately set.

For customer payment journals, the main account type will be set to Customer by default, and you won’t be able to change it. The new validation process will verify that the offset account type is not set to Customer.
Likewise for vendor payment journals, the main account type will be set to Vendor by default and can’t be changed. The validation process will verify that the offset account type for vendor payment journals is not set to Vendor.


That’s it for this blog, this is small but can be important one for your project.
Thank YOU !!! Keep reading and sharing !!!
Just one note to your screen shot in the customer payment journal line screen, you should display the Account Type field instead of the Offset Account Type which can be anything applicable.

Hi Gary, second screen shot is specifically for offset this feature also validates that you don’t put customer as offset account because you have fixed account type as customer.
For account type, it’s on 1st screen shot
