After an amortization schedule was added to a bill, the GL impact is showing that it posted to the wrong deferral account. Anyone have an idea of what can cause this and how to resolve? The deferral account is correct on the expense account record. Thanks in advance!

Did you use an Item record in the Vendor Bill? Also, what's the deferral account in the Amortization Schedule itself?

No, no item record. Just an expense account. And there isn't a deferral account in the amortization schedule. In the past, it would just post to the deferral account associated with the expense account.
I did notice that the deferral account had been changed a few months ago for that particular expense account and it posted to the old deferral account. It seems to only affect that one bill. I did a test in Sandbox and created a bill with the same expense account and amortization schedule and it posted correctly.

Maybe the change in the deferral account occurred prior to creating the Vendor Bill? Is the period still open? I'll try to remove the Vendor Bill line (assuming no amortization yet) and create a new line, so that it will recognize the new deferral account.

I considered that but the change to the deferral account was made in March and this bill was just entered in May. Very perplexed by it.
