Please is there a difference between accruals and payables? And if there is, how do I know the difference.

Although they are both shown as current liabilities, payables are where we have received an invoice but have not yet paid it. Accruals are where we have not yet received an invoice but know that we do owe money.
Have you watched my lectures on accruals?
