Modify a Check

Vendor checks can be edited if they have not yet been printed or posted. Once a check is printed or posted, you must void the check and recreate it to make changes.

1. For security and audit trail purposes, each check contains an Audit Log tab that indicates if the check was created manually or automatically, when it was printed, reprinted, removed from print checks queue or voided and which employee performed each action.

2. There are several ways to view or update an existing check depending on the Payee type (vendor, customer, employee or other).

Search Checks Queue
The easiest way to locate a check is by using the Search Checks queue. Go to Administration > Accounting > Banking > Search Checks.

1. A list of all checks created in the last six months will display by default, but you can search for checks by date range, bank account, amount, text search and more. Simply locate the check and double click to view or edit.
