"Include on your check ..."

For some payroll tax issues before my time here I need to make a payment to the IRS. They want the FEIN, the tax period date, and the  tax form number to appear on "the check and any correspondence."  I've tried looking through the Help screens for updating the check form to where I can add things to appear on the check or statement, but I obviously don't know the secret search words that QB used for this info. Anyone able to help out with info on what, if any, areas can be added to print on he check / stub?

"Include on your check ..."

@Deadwood Al  As far as the FEIN, that should automatically be added to the memo of any given Liability check you create.

 

I don't know where exactly you'd go in QuickBooks to get the tax period to show up, but honestly, the easiest way would probably be to create the check (Presumably liability check) in QuickBooks that you intend to print, and simply add what you need to the memo field of the check before printing.

 

As for the type of tax, that would show up on the stubs, assuming you're using a Trifold type of check stock. The stubs would include which accounts were assigned to the liability check; Federal Withholding, Social Security, Medicare for 941, and Federal Unemployment for 940, and so on.

 

That would work well enough for a one-time job.
