There are uncleared cheques that are now stale. What is the best way to clear these without losing a trail on the transactions? I've read through what's already out there, but it's not applicable. I'm using QB Enterprise.
Thank you.
Good day to you, @Abskiboo.
To clear those checks in your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) software, you can either void, delete, or create a Journal Entry (JE). Before doing so, you’ll want to review the checks and ensure there are no transactions link to them to avoid issues in the future.
To void a check, open the check and select either Void or Delete Check from the Delete drop-down menu.
Furthermore, I recommend working with your accountant for further guidance. This way, we can ensure your books are accurate after clearing those checks. If you’re not affiliated with one, you can visit our ProAdvisor page and we’ll help you find one from there.
You might also want to utilize this article that provides detailed steps on how to reconcile your accounts efficiently in the future: Reconcile an account in QuickBooks Desktop.
Let me know if there’s anything else you need assistance with clearing those checks or in managing your accounts. I’ll be around to help you. Have a great day ahead!
There's no way to clear a check without it impacting your next reconciliation. If you think they may clear in the future, don't do anything. They can hang out forever in your account. Not a problem at all.
If you stop the checks, or know they won't clear, then voiding them is reasonable, though in that case whatever expenses they represent will go away as well.
Thank you for your reply. I will check with our accountant.
