It's essential to verify that the correct accounts were used when printing checks in QuickBooks Online (QBO), Joyce. We'll provide more details about how the system works when printing checks.
Determining the bank account used for the checks makes it easier to locate when you’re printing checks in the program. However, if you’ve selected the correct account and still your checks don’t reflect, it’s possible that you’ve already printed the checks the moment that you finished creating them. Please be aware that if you didn't tick the box beside "Print Later," and you have an external email connected to your device, QuickBooks automatically prints the check created when you click the "Save and Close" or "Save" button.
On the other hand, if you've selected the box beside the Print Later section, QuickBooks saves the checks and adds them to the system's queue, allowing you to print them at your preferred time.
To locate and print those checks that didn't appear, you can utilize the audit log feature to access and modify them so you can set them up to Print Later. Here's how:
- On the top right corner, click the Search icon.
- Select Advanced transactions search.
- Add filters such as what type of transaction and other details.
- Manually click on each Check transaction to open them and then tick the box beside Print Later.
- Once done, click the Save and close button.
