****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ****** To match two old journals together so they are no longer in your AP Aging (no-vendor), you can follow these steps: 1. Create a dummy Opening Balance Vendor. 2. Create a saved search with the Internal ID and Line ID and Amount of the Journal Entry lines where Account = A/P. 3. Re-import that in Update mode and map the Name field. This will update all the A/P Journal Entry lines. 4. Pay Single Vendor for the dummy A/P vendor. This process essentially reclassifies the 'no vendor' AP balances to the dummy vendor. If you have different currencies involved and/or multi-book, please make sure you take that into consideration as neglecting exchange rates will create more issues. Please note that this balance will not just magically disappear. If you need to get rid of it, it needs to be moved somewhere. You can pay it off (but then the balance will pretty much move to your cash) or you can journal it to another account of your choice. Alternatively, if you don't want to open up the prior periods, you can use a filter on your AP Aging report to exclude 'no vendor'. However, this doesn't remove the balance, it just hides it from the report.
