Description
Default Ledger Accounts are a convenience setting that pre-populate form fields in specific places to save the effort of re-selecting the same account every time you open a new Document (e.g. Invoice or Bill). Manage your default Ledger Accounts from Settings>Accounts.
Note: These are only default accounts, meaning you can always select a different account to the one selected here as the default on a per Document basis.
