Can someone explain to me how I get the "Memo" to show up and print on my checks when I am creating a bill? Thanks for any help.

Thanks a lot, that does it.   :)   

This is a functional workaround, but overall, the user experience here is TERRIBLE and frustrating.

Shouldn't have to keep re-opening and and saving the same information multiple times. Default should be to carry over whatever was entered as a "Memo" on the original bill. What else are you going to put there that isn't meant to be on the check? Including an account or invoice number on the check is such a standard practice I'm shocked this is such a cumbersome and non-intuitive process.

Please fix.

This is probably one of the stupidest things I have ever heard.  Why should you have to copy and paste the memo from the bill into the memo on the check?  I have been in the accounting field for 30+ years and have never seen a system that requires this.  This should be fixed immediately.

Has this work-around been fixed yet?

Is there a way to have the mem from the bill auto populate as the memo for the check? in QB Desktop 2023?

It's great to see you in this thread, Cprimm.

I acknowledge that manually entering the memo details from the bill into the check Memo field can be burdensome. Let me shed some light on your concern.

Currently, you'll have to manually input the information entered in the bill (memo) to show it in the check Memo field. However, when you utilize the Pay Bills feature, the information you've added to the bill (Memo field) will automatically be displayed in the bill payment check.

If you wish to have an automated function that shows the memo from the bill to the check, simply send a request to our engineers. They'll consider your feedback for future releases, aiming to enhance your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) experience.

This is so typical of Quickbooks.  "I know this is extremely frustrating and burdensome for you users, but we aren't going to fix it because we are a giant megacorporation that makes billions of dollars off of you and feel no need to fix the things that make your life harder".  How hard is it to add a feature where you can click a button to make the memo carry over to the printed check.  This company and it's software sucks.  

Unfortunately, it seems like QuickBooks never fixes things based on feedback. Instead, they fix things that already work and ignore users.
