how to sort checks in a check register by order entered

Hi there, Mbradosky.

In QuickBooks Online, the Check Register sorts checks based only on their payment date, not the date they were created or entered into the system.
 

As a workaround, you can pull up the Check Detail report to see when a check was created by adding a column.

Here's how:

1. Click on Reports in the left navigation bar.
2. Select Standard reports and type Check detail in the search bar.
3. Click on Columns to customize and select Created on to display the date the check was entered into QuickBooks in the report column.

For your reference, please see the screenshot below.
