Supplier Accounting default values are defined at the System level (see Payables User Guide, Chapter 2 - Payables Setup) but can be overwritten at the Supplier and Supplier Site level (see Payables User Guide, Chapter 3 - Suppliers).
I have no experience of changing accounting values, so the rest of this post is an educated guess and not based on actual experience, so if somebody else gives you advice based on their actual experience, please feel free to ignore this post, except for this one piece of advice:- whatever you do, try it out in TEST before you go anywhere near PRODUCTION.
If you enter an invoice from a supplier while the Liability account is set to Account A, then the Total Invoice value will be Credited to Account A. If you then change the Liability Account to Account B and pay the Invoice, I believe that the Payment will Debit Account B. This will leave you the problem of reconciling Accounts A and B and providing evidence to the Auditors that all is as it should be.
It might be better to set up a new Supplier (or Supplier Site) with the correct Accounting. You could then enter a Credit Memo against the old Supplier (and match it to the original Invoice) then reenter the Invoice against the new Supplier.
But remember, whatever you do, try it out in TEST before you go anywhere near PRODUCTION.
HTH
David
