Hello, @milly6180.
You can use the Sales Receipt or Record Deposits to record it in your QuickBooks Desktop for Mac. Just make sure that when creating a Sales receipt, you’ll select the check as a payment method.
Here’s how.
- On the QuickBooks home screen, select Create Sales Receipts.
- From the Customer: Job drop-down, select the customer.
- Fill in the relevant information.
- Choose the payment method as Check.
- In the detail area, fill in the description and amount received.
- Then, click Save & Close.
Also, you can directly record your check to Record Deposits and contact your accountant so you’ll be guided for the correct account.
