How do I remove the "check created out of sequence" that prints on bottom of my checks?

I'm here to ensure you're able to remove the memo on your check, k.walker7787.

 

To start, I'd suggest printing the Check Detail report. This shows all the checks sorted by number. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Reports menu.
  2. Search for Check Detail report.
  3. Customize the report:
    • General/Transaction Date: All Dates
    • Group by: Account
    • Sort by: Num
  4. Select Run Report.
  5. To print the report, select the printer icon.

 

If the error shows in the report, I'd suggest following the steps below to correct the sequence:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon and then select Account and Settings.
  2. On the Sales tab, click Sales form content.
  3. Make sure Custom transaction numbers is checked, then select Save.
  4. Navigate to the Advanced tab, then click the Other preferences section.
  5. Make sure Warn if duplicate check number is used is checked as well.
  6. Select Save and then Done.

 

Additionally, I've added these articles that'll help you manage your checks when printing in QuickBooks Online.

 

 

Please come back and keep us posted on your progress printing your checks, k.walker7787. I'm determined to get this resolved.

Can my staff still cash the Bonus check even if it says that comment in the bottom?

Is it a good check ?

Thanks for joining this thread, Olivia02.

 

Yes, your staff can still cash the bonus check when that message appears in the bottom. It only means that the check number of the last one is not currently followed.

 

Also, yes, it is a good check. I've gathered some articles for your additional references:
