Year End Adjustments

Question

Fingers crossed someone can help with this! 
 I am trying to determine how to make the Year End adjustments I got from our Accountant. I've been doing some research and I understand that you can't use the general journal for accounts such as AP and AR and so you have to make the adjustment through the respective modules. What I don't understand is how to do that, when they are not associated with Vendor/Customer accounts. I also have a payroll adjustment to make, however I don't know how to make it in the payroll module, because it's from a prior year. (We only received the adjustments for Year End Jan 31, 2013 yesterday). I've listed the adjustments I'm having trouble with below. Any help is greatly appreciated! 
 1. Debit Accounts Payable - Credit Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable Year End, GST Payable, and Retained Earnings 
 2. Debit Wages & Salaries - Credit Vacation Payable

For the adjustments to A/P and A/R you will need to know who the vendors/customers are that needs the adjustments. Once you find that out then you can do the adjustments to each vendor/customers thru the appropriate modules. 
 This also applies for Payroll if the Vacation Payable is inked to payroll - there used to be a way one could change the accrued vacation pay amount which would have allowed you to just create a general journal entry for doing Nbr 2 but I don't see that now.
