Disable Check Printing in .IIF File

Good Afternoon,

Does anyone know how to disable the printing of specific checks after importing the .IIF file? An example of this would be that we want to keep record of NSF's but we don't want them printed as physical checks. Below are lines from our .IIF file with an example for a deposit (highlighted in blue) that we do want printed and a NSF (highlighted in red) that we don't want printed.  Currently everything we import from the .IIF file gets printed. This file layout worked perfectly fine in the old version of Quickbooks with NSF checks not printing until we updated to Enterprise 2021. We do have an option to ignore the error by bypassing the conventional import button and just clicking the "Import for me now, I'll fix it later" link but in the long run I would suspect that is not ideal.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

Disable Check Printing in .IIF File

Yes, the new "better" IIF import marks all checks to be printed if they don't have check numbers.  Or, in any case, when you have not specified that they should be printed in the IIF file.

 

The way around this and the many, many other bugs with the new import is to use the legacy import, as you've mentioned you're doing.
