Check Printing

I am using QB desktop Premier Plus Contractor Edition

 

Hello,

I tried to print a check out to pay a vendor and it jammed. This is the first time ever. So the check is a company check with a check number. But it was destroyed in the printer. How do I reprint the check with the next check number? Please, if you could, don't gloss over any of the steps or use abbrev. I really need the step by step details in plain english. Thank you!

Check Printing

Hello there, @the_tile_setters. I'm here to share the steps on how you can reprint the checks in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT). 

 

To do so, you can simply perform the normal steps in printing a check. Please know that this will have the same information as the one that has been destroyed in the printer. 

 

If you want to change the check number, you can modify it by entering the new one in the NO. field. Note that the program will follow the last number of the transaction you've created.

 

Before anything else, ensure to create a backup copy of your company file first. This is to make sure that you have the original data that you can restore in case of accidental loss or damage. 

 

Once ready, follow these steps:

 

  1. Go to the Reports menu and select the Banking section.
  2. Next, choose Check Detail. This will show the list of checks you've created.
  3. From there, look for the check you need to reprint and double-click it to open.
  4. Modify the details if needed.
  5. Then, click the Print icon.
  6. Enter the number you want in the Printed Check Number field. 
  7. Select the Print button to print the check.

 

For reference, check out this article: Create, modify, and print checks.

 

Additionally, if you need to pay a vendor on a regular basis, you can memorize your checks to make them recurring. For detailed steps, read this link: Create an automatic recurring payment (check) to a vendor.

 

I'm just around the corner to help if you have other concerns printing checks in QuickBooks. Feel free to post again here. Have a good one, and stay safe.
