To where Edgar is going (I assume): if you are using "real" AP or AR accounts, ie their type is "Accounts Receivable" or "Accounts Payable", the system requires you to tag each line where that account is used with an interco Customer/Vendor respectively.
For that reason, I like to use Other Current Asset or Other Current Liability as the types for interco accounts if possible since they don't have that requirement.
Depending on your reporting/compliance needs, you may not be able to bypass the interco customers/vendors though.
