Purchase Journal not showing up

SUGGESTED

Hi everyone! I'm taking a Computer Accounting course in our college and we are using Sage 50 the student version. I am currently working on a company that is given here in the book and when I attempt to create an invoice the purchase journal won't show up on my screen for some reason. What should I do? I already restarted my laptop and it still not showing up and this is due on Friday. I don't know what to do with this error. I would appreciate it if someone could help. Thank you very much!

  • It would be easier to help if we could see an image of your Home screen.

    Check under Setup, Settings, and check the options for the third module down on the left.  Usually it is called Payables if you are using Accounting Terms.  In there, you can tell if the Purchase journal has been renamed.

    Under Setup, User Preferences, View you can check to see if the Payables module has been hidden.

    This just happened to me as well, and I struggled for a bit.  Once you have checked that it was posted in the purchases journal as "pay later" then go to payments journal, and click on  "view", then hit restore window and it should reset the columns so that you can see the invoice #, original amount, amount owing and the payment amount.  I'm not sure why it reset on me, but it is fixed now.  Hope this helps someone else.
