No available bank accounts

When you select to AP purchase invoices to pay, ensure that accounts have been set up for the default payment method to prevent any error messages about no bank accounts.

Another way to prevent bank account error messages is by selecting the appropriate options when paying AP purchase invoices that are in a currency other than the company base currency.

Reasons for a message about no bank accounts

Verify the default payment method for paying AP purchase invoices and ensure that the payment method has been fully configured. For example:

  • If Cheque is the default payment method, ensure that at least one has been set up.
  • If standard ACH is the default payment method, ensure that you've set up your bank as an ACH bank and have associated one or more Cheque accounts with the ACH bank (standard ACH setup).

To determine the default payment method:

  1. Go to Accounts Payable > Setup > Configuration.
  2. In the Defaults section, review the Payment method value.

  2. Change Status to Active.

  1. Go to Accounts Payable > All > Pay AP purchase invoices.
  2. In AP purchase invoice Currency, select the currency of the AP purchase invoice.
  3. Select the Use base currency banks to pay checkbox.
  4. Select View.
