AP payments & GL transactions

Hello,

when I pay an invoice of AP, it generate two transactions on GL. The first contains withdrawal from bank account to my Accounts Payable Account  set in admin>>AP>>site config. The second transaction contains a deposit from the Accounts Payable Account to my GL account selected in invoice.

Is there a way to the GL show only one transaction with a withdrawal from bank account to GL account like I selected on invoice/payment? It seems don't make sense generate two transactions for the same payment.

Thanks

Please double check that immediately after posting the invoice.
One transaction is created when posting the invoice, one when paying  
the invoice.
There can be some time between the two.

pERP uses accrual accounting (AP & AR accrue, then are paid off), and  
what you're thinking is cash accounting.
