Hi carrie-w-saunder. You came to the right place. Writing checks to vendors in QuickBooks Online is a breeze. Just follow these steps and you'll be on your way to recording vendor payments in no time:
- Select + New.
- Under the Vendors column, select Check.
- Choose the Payee
- Specify the Bank Account being used for the check
- Complete the rest of the check fields including the Amount
- Select the Print or Preview option if you want to print the check.
- Select Save and close or Save and new.
Here's a quick video guide as well, I think this will be a great help as well because personally I'm a visual learner:
You can also look into the secure checks available through the Intuit Market . This can help you in preventing counterfeiting and tampering. If you plan on using pre-printed check you'll also want to look into this article pertaining to How to Align your Printer for printing checks.
I also noticed this is your first post, I always like to recommend that those who are new to QuickBooks check out the QuickBooks Resource Center for great articles on business management and other tips for using QuickBooks. Intuit also has the QuickBooks Learn and Support page, which allows you to search our database of articles directly for anything you may run into along your QuickBooks Journey.
Let me know if you need any other help with writing checks, I'm always happy to help. Have a great rest of your day as well.
