There are accounts payable to "name of company"
"Se tiene" and "Se tienen" can be translated as "there is" and "there are".
The sentence starts with an object of a preposition, followed by a comma, and then comes "se tienen".
As a strategy, I would eliminate the preposition "con" and translate "Se tienen" as "There are" and then continue with the rest.
Suggested translations
There are accounts payable to "Company ABC" in the amount of ...
There are payables to "Company ABC" amounting to ...
Hope this helps.

The preposition - CON - appearing at the beginning of the sentence is translated into - TO- which appears in the complement of the translated sentence.

You did answer the question. However, I not only answered the question, but I also provided a strategy for clearer understanding and accuracy.
