Edit a cleared check

I printed a check for someone in Feb but it still shows up as unpaid and "to print."

How can I remove it from the pay bills section?

Good afternoon, 

Once I've exported transactions into the bank feeds section of QBs in order to complete a transaction, I'm having an issue. I usually want to simply add swept transactions into QBs, but as I check off other transactions ..  (that I don't need to add) new ones automatically become checked again. This of course, makes this task very time consuming and tedious .... any thoughts on why other transactions auto check repeatedly?  

In the attached below, you'll that I have checked the ones I want to add but then others pop in as checked again. This happens even if i uncheck all boxes and try again.

I understand the circumstances, @BarbC. I appreciate you providing a screenshot. I've come to help you with this query about bills in QuickBooks Desktop. 

When bills, which are already paid, show as unpaid in the Pay Bills window, or, in this case, the A/P Aging Report, check if there are available credits (from unapplied bill payments, recorded credits, or journal entries to the Accounts Payable account) that should be applied to those bills. Another possible issue is transaction damage.

You can open your checking account to modify the check you created. And yes, it removes from the Print now screen once the Print Later box is unchecked. 

Let me walk you through the steps:

1. Go to File.
2. Pick Print Forms, then choose Checks.
3. Uncheck the Print later box and assign a number. Make some changes if needed.
4. Click Save & Close after. 

I've added screenshots for your visual reference. 

1. Open the existing check you created. Remove to be printed box. Change the Expense account to Accounts Payable. Then, assign it as Vendor. 
2. From the Customer: Job dropdown, select the vendor name. If you don't enter a name, QuickBooks will ask you to choose a vendor for the Accounts Payable line item. 
3. Click Save & Close. 

Then, you can now pay the bill. Here's how:

1. From the Vendors menu, then select Pay Bills.
2. Choose the bill connected to the check.
3. Tick Set Credits, then go to the Credits tab.
4. Put a check on the credit. Change the amount as needed.
5. Click Done. Then select Pay Selected Bills. 

Now if you check the transaction history, it shows the regular check as the payment.

For your second question about banking, you can set Ignore transactions one at a time so that they are not added to the register and avoid duplicates. I've added screenshots for your visual reference. 

For your future reference, you can use this article if you want to pay bills online. You can pay your vendor bills directly in QuickBooks Desktop. Then, QuickBooks automatically records your payment accurately record. Use Online Bill Pay In QuickBooks Desktop.
