Good morning! I am looking a report that provides the name that is printed on the check. Sometimes the "PRINT NAME ON CHECK AS" is different than the vendor name. I have not been able to locate a report option that provides this. Thank you in advance!

The "Print name on check as" field isn't available on any report, as far as I've been able to determine.

 

What is it you're trying to get done?

Doesn't Online offer a vendor report where you can select "Print on Check as"?

 

Create a report that has Vendor and this field, export to excel, save it on a sheet, then export your transaction list of checks, do a vlookup on the vendor to the other tab and return the "print on check as" field and build your export from there.

 

I do this in desktop, not sure if it can be done in Online, but I would figure similar functionality.  This is how I'm building the check positive pay file for our bank.  Or then again, pay for the guy aboves product to do it for you automatically.  🙂

Where do you find this report?  I use QB Desktop and cannot locate a way to print a list of Venders and "print on check as" file?

Has anyone made any progress on this in QB Online?  We just signed up for Positive Pay with our bank and keep getting exceptions because the name printed on the check does not match what is in the register.  Instead of waiting for exceptions it would be so helpful to run a report that shows Company name, Vendor display name, and Name to print on checks and find the mismatches.  Otherwise I have to edit every single customer to see if there is a mismatch.  Help!?

No,  QB Online has made no improvements in this area.

Has there been any improvement to the memorize reports tab. I am having the same issue where I can't change the report to show "name as in check" having over 300 employees and having to edit every positive pay is a bit time consuming.

QB Online has made no improvements in this area. Generally QB Online reports are still much weaker than QB Desktop reports.
