I can provide the steps needed to accomplish your task, ddyer29.
Voiding the check will affect your financial record if the check was written in 2019. You can enter a deposit in the current period for the total amount and post it to the principal account.
- Select + New, then Bank Deposit.
- From the Account ▼ drop-down, choose the account you want to put the money into.
- Scroll down to the Add funds to this deposit section.
- Enter in the description field the check number that you are voiding. Doing this will put the amount back in the checking account.
- Make sure the total of the selected transactions matches your deposit slip. Use your deposit slip as a reference.
- Select Save and close.
Another solution is to create a journal entry to reverse the activity in the current period. Upon sharing this, I still recommend consulting your account to know which account to debit and credit.
