Note:

When you enter an invoice, the Account column of the distribution grid prefills with the GL debit account specified on the vendor (Setup, Vendors).

However, if the invoice does not have Job Cost related information, change any JC Cost Control Acct that prefills to an Other Control Acct or a non-control account
