Where to start

Let's make accounts payable exciting, people.

As a fellow accountant...I'll try my best, but I prefer accounts receivable. :)

Well, I'm not an accountant, but I just rewrote the intro to try to make it a little more easy to understand for the peasants and sex it up a little with an example of Dells mastery of the A/P. Sbwoodside 06:31, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article is far from complete and doesn't define the Accounts Payable process, its purpose nor its relationship to Purchasing, Budget and Accounting. The reference to Dell as a company who bills prior to shipping is incorrect.

Accounts Payable is a liability account on the General Ledger. The collection of individual amounts due vendors comprises the sub-ledger to the Accounts Payable account.

Link to the German article "Verbindlichkeiten"

I somehow cannot enter this link - I get an error that it is already used. But when I go this page, it is nearly blank. Please make the link between EN:Accounts payable and DE:Verbindlichkeiten. Thanks ----Bernburgerin (talk) 09:27, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
