Generally, your bank pays the bill of exchange once the due date recorded on the bill is reached. The payment is displayed to you by a bank statement. When you receive the bank statement, you post the payment to the bank account and clear the bill payable to the vendor account. The system posts the bill payment to the special G/L account automatically.
