How to cancel a Stale Dated cheque?

Hello

I would like cancel a cheque (never cashed) that was posted in a previous year.  What is the best way to do this so we have a "paper trail" and it is recorded in the current year?   If I void or delete it, it will use the original date

Thank you

How to cancel a Stale Dated cheque?

Hello catle3611,

 

Thanks for choosing QuickBooks to help tackle your accounting goals. I'll be happy to share more info so you can continue to navigate the program with confidence. 

 

If the cheque in question wasn't cashed as described, or included in previous reconciliations, you can delete it using the steps provided in this helpful article here. However, if the cheque was reconciled you'd have to undo the reconciliation then follow the steps in the article to delete it. 

 

Let me know if this info helps. I'll be one message away in case you have other questions.

Hi JamesM4

 

I have another stale cheque from a previous year. I deleted the cheque but QB deleted it in the original year instead of the current year.  Can you repost the links you provided in your previous message?  When I click on them, I get an error message.  Thank you
