REVERSE AN UNPRINTED CREDIT IN PAY BILLS

I printed a check in June 22 which was supposed to be posted in May 31 22 payables our year end.  The accountant created a journal entry moving it into May but now there is a check in that amount in the "print checks" screen like it's unpaid.  How do I reverse that check in "print checks"?

Open the check. And click the check mark next to "Print Later"

REVERSE AN UNPRINTED CREDIT IN PAY BILLS

You've come to the right place for assistance, @francesurnberg. Let's work together so we can remove the printed check in the Print Checks window in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).

 

First, let's go ahead and review the check we entered and ensure to unselect the Print Later option. 

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Banking and select Write Checks.
  2. Locate the specific check. We can do that by going to Reports and selecting Check Detail. Double-click the check in question to open it.
  3. Go back to the Main tab and uncheck the Print Later button.
  4. Once done, select Save & Close.

Moreover, small balances may exist as a result of an error, an overpayment, or an underpayment. It's frequently more expensive in terms of time and materials to collect or pay the amount owed than it is to clear it from your accounts. If you want to remove the check as credit, I'll share this article on how to write off vendor balances: Write off customer and vendor balances. Before doing so, we need a consultation from an accounting professional.

 

If you have payroll liabilities paid on a regular basis, we can create a payroll liability schedule to ensure that you pay them on time. If you made liability payments using Write Checks rather than Pay Liabilities, we can also correct them in QBDT.

 

You can always reach out to us again if you have further clarifications about printing checks in QBDT. I'd be more than happy to assist you. Have a nice day!
