[GNC] Accounts Payable Description Visibility in Transaction/Ledger

[Adrien Monteleone]

Yes, you can do this per bill when you post, or set a global default 
preference under Preferences > Business > General.

Uncheck the option to "Accumulate Splits". This will show each line item 
on a bill/invoice in the respective transaction in the AP/AR register.

When you post, you can also enter a custom description that will show up 
in the Notes field of the register transaction. (you have to turn on 
View > Double Line to see it)

Regards,
Adrien

For example, we have a vendor, TES, who issued four different bills, each for airfare for a different person, identified in the description field, but the account ledger shows only 'TES' in the Memo.
