Why does it show (check) next to a payment in my search after i make a vendor payment ?

Let me address your concern, Vp fitness.

It will show Bill Payment (Check) if you use a bank as a payment account. If you use a credit card, it will show as Bill Payment (Credit Card).

I'll share this article as a future reference: Enter bills and record bill payments in QuickBooks Online.
