Join nowI just ran checks from A/P and the strangest thing happened. I ran them for today's date, (04/21/22), yet when the checks printed the first check printed with the date of 04/18/22. Unless there is a gremlin trying to freak me out in here how could this happen?
Thank you for your insight and feedback!

Hello, Debi.
Before we dive into the issue, I'd like to ask and clarify a few things.
Just to clarify on what you did, did you create and record the checks for today's date? And did you include other checks that were recorded days ago?
I'd appreciate more details about the printing process, so I can lay down some information on what might've caused the date to appear incorrectly.
Definitely! We have 2 a/p accounts. I chose the checks from the first account, made sure the date was 04/21/22 at the bottom of the screen, chose the checks from the second account, hit print and the result was as I described. I did not choose from a previous date.
I appreciate your immediate response, @Debi St Bruno. I'll make sure you can print the appropriate check date in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).
