I can not print vendor checks anymore, before i would create a bill and just print the payment check out. Now it is showing schedule payment and nothing happens.

Hello there, @kelley3.

Can you provide the specific error are you having when trying to print in QuickBooks Online (QBO)

In the meantime, let's try printing your transactions or reports in a private window. There are times that the browser is full of frequently accessed page resources, causing some unusual responses.

To save you time, use either of these keyboard shortcuts:

• Mozilla Firefox: press Ctrl + Shift + P
• Internet Explorer: press Ctrl + Shift + P
• Safari: press Command + Shift +N

If you're able to print fine in a private window, go back to your original browser and clear its cache to start fresh. Also, using other supported browsers can help us narrow the cause of this behavior.

If you're getting the same problem, you can check out these articles to resolve printing issues in QBO:

• Fix QuickBooks Online printing issues on browsers for Windows
• Resolve PDF printing issues
• Test sequence for PDF printing issues

We're here to lend a hand if you have other printing concerns. Feel free to let us know. 

@GraceC ,

You guys need to stop telling people that it's an issue on their end.  It is QB that did this.  It has NOTHING to do with which browser they are using, or if the cache needs help.  

IT IS ALL QUICKBOOKS and trying to force us to use Online Bill Pay.   

Calling customer service or anyone else doesn't help, either.  They ALL just say that it is, how it is.  They have NO intentions on changing things back, or fixing what's totally broken.  They won't even put things back, that NEED to be there. 

@Kelly3 

It's a lost cause. I've been trying for over a week to get answers.  They just keep telling me this is how it is and we, as customers, have to deal with it. Good luck!!

Same issue. No check printing options like there has always been. I only see the "Save and schedule payment" option. I need to print checks.

Same situation. I need to print checks and am no longer seeing this option. There is only the "Save and schedule payment" which directs me to electronic payment options. 

It's my priority that you can print vendor's check, Eksa22.

To help us get this sorted out, I would recommend contacting our Customer Care Support. They have available tools to take a look into your account and can help you remove the payment schedule option on your end. 

Here's how:

1. Go to the Help icon.
2. Click Contact us.
3. Enter "no print option" as your concern.
4. Click Let's talk.
5. Choose either to Start a message or Get a callback.

Its a new feature that was forced upon us! HATE IT!! I didnt ask for it, I like how I was doing my checks and now they want to print and send my checks NO!! Looking for another software program. Quickbooks has became to controlling!! To print checks I now have to go through  extra steps, why would they take something that works and force something unwanted? UPSET!!

I am having the same issue. Before I could pay a vendor and print the check. Now it says schedule online payment and then nothing happens. Annoying.

can you suggest a better book keeping system so i can leave quickbooks all together. they obviously dont care but im not sure where to switch to. 

not helpful.

The only way I can bypass it is to save the invoice, and then go back out to the vendor list.  If I then look up the vendor I am trying to issue a check to, the make payment option is available on the right hand side.  If you click on the "make Payment" it takes  you to the screen that you can print a check from.  I hate the new set up and all the searching to be able to do simple tasks.  Many of my vendors do not take anything but check, so quickbooks needs to fix this.

This is a nightmare! QuickBooks, why would you take this away and create more extra steps? This is not acceptable!

This response is bullsh*t. It's a transparently dark pattern. Idiots.

QUICKBOOKS: Fix this - I want to print local checks from the Bill Pay screen.  I am NOT turning this over to your bill pay service.  Due to this I am going to switch vendors ASAP.

I'd like to assist you with printing checks when paying bills with QuickBooks Online, @mi4guyc.

Kindly be informed that the option make payment was changed into schedule online payment few months ago.  

Checks can still be used to pay your bills. To do so, select the Mark as paid option from the drop-down menu. You'll be directed to the bill payment window. Then, at the bottom of the page, tap Print check and choose the bills you wish to pay. 

For your convenience, I've attached some screenshots below:

I've added these resources for more guidance:

Lastly, you can refer to this link if you want to review all of your vendor transactions in the future.

I just entered bills or invoices from vendors and my unpaid bills will not populate to the Print Check screen.  

Hope you're doing good today, PMA131.

To all that are having issues trying to print checks for a bill, I feel your pain.  I've been struggling for MONTHS.  The added steps are unwarranted and QB technology should rise to correct this.  There should be an option to print check along with Schedule Payment from the Vendor/Bills page.  I finally spent over 1 hour on a chat/share screen and the assistant had NO idea what was going on. 

In order to pay an existing bill via a paper check, you have to go to +New in the upper Left, select Pay Bills - from there you should see your bills in order to print a paper check.  Hope this helps  

I have same issue.

How can I fix to print the check for vendors?

I can see the importance of ensuring smooth check printing on your part, Hwmfuwaa. Don't worry, I'll provide alternative methods to print checks.

First off, let's make sure you mark all the bill transactions as paid. Once marked as paid, we can go to the Expenses tab, select the transactions, and open them. Then, it will route you to Bill Payment # to print. Click on Print check. Then, we can Preview and print the transactions, and Print it.

See these screenshots below:

An additional option is to navigate to the +New icon and choose the Print checks option. From there, you can select the desired transaction and make sure to select the correct account. Once finished, click on Preview and print. Then, proceed to print.

Same here, there was an option to print a check and now it wants me to issue a check for a charge or online bill pay. I just want to print checks for my bills. This is very frustrating.

This is the same for me. It is very frustrating.

We hear you, @adoperations. 

I see how important it is on your end to print the bill of your vendor as a check. Let me provide the steps so you can achieve this goal.

When recording a bill in QuickBooks Online (QBO), only making the bill recurring and scheduling online payments are available, and there's no option to directly print checks.

However, you can achieve this goal by manually recording the bill payment in QuickBooks Online (QBO) to print a check.

Here's how:

1. Click the +New icon and select Pay Bills.
2. Tick the boxes of the transactions you want to print a check.
3. Tap the dropdown icon in the lower right corner. Ensure to select Save and Print.
   
4. You'll be routed to the Print Checks section. Review the bill transactions if they're correct.
5. Click Preview and print to see the totality of the check before printing.
   
6. Once done, tap Print.
