Record a Handwritten Check

From Payables, Invoices, you can record a handwritten check you manually write to pay one invoice at a time.

Note: You can't record multiple handwritten checks at the same time.

1. You can record a handwritten check from two locations:

   • From the list of invoices under Standard, select Record manual check from the menu for an invoice.

   • From an invoice record, select Record manual check.

2. Select the bank account to use.

3. Enter the amount to pay. To partially pay the invoice, enter less than the full amount.

   Tip: From the list of invoices, you can filter and view using the Partially paid status.

4. Enter the check number, check date, and post status.

5. If the check has cleared the bank, select Cleared and enter the cleared date. Otherwise, you can update these details after the check clears.

6. Select Save. The invoice is automatically marked Paid and the associated payment record is created.
