Yes, this is a necessary feature. Just had to Remove and Undo several checks as the wrong account is somehow the default after i added a money market account. I will try to pay attention but this is likely to happen again if i cannot designate a default checking account.

Hopefully we can have this feature asap.

How is this not a thing yet? Silly.

Same. We write several thousand checks per month, using the "make payment > pay by check" screen perhaps 15 times in a row, and each time we have to be positive we've selected the correct bank account out of six. And then once we've selected the correct bank account, we have to wait for them to renumber.

We have a large number of bank accounts but only one trading account so this would save a lot of time having to always find the trading account in a long list when paying bills etc

I'm new to Xero after using an alternative package and was surprised that this wasn't a feature. Would be helpful and time saving to be able to set as a default then only use drop down feature if an alternative bank account was required .

This will assist in repeating bills. And also a functionality to confirm is a bill is a direct debit or have to manually pay.
