Group: Pay Vendor Invoices
Action: Handwritten Checks
On many occasions you are required to issue handwritten checks for such expenses as C.O.D. deliveries or other day-to-day business purchases. Selecting this action will allow you to enter the required information into the accounts payable tables so that they are properly recorded in the system.
If necessary, a check can be printed from this step if the quick check option is selected. When the Vendor handwritten Check Setup form is displayed, select either the handwritten check or quick check option (located in center of form).
The handwritten check option is used to enter information for a check that was handwritten.
The quick check option can be used to quickly print a check for such things as C.O.D. deliveries.
The handwritten check procedure allows the entry of data for multiple invoices and/or split invoices for charging multiple general ledger expense accounts or job cost numbers and will insure that the check amount is in balance with the invoice amount.
Note: This Module step cannot be used to pay invoices that are already entered into the system. If you pay an invoice already entered into the system with a handwritten check, you must select the invoice for payment using the Select Vendor Invoices To Pay Module step and then write the check on stock paper with the Print Vendor Checks Module step.
