I'm here to provide some insights about clearing checks in QuickBooks, @Frieaza.

 

We can create a journal entry in the current month and then clearing the check and the journal entry on your next QuickBooks bank reconciliation.

 

Here are the steps:

  1. Open the original check.
  2. Create a journal entry to Debit the bank account and credit the expense the original check was posted to (if the check was a bill payment check - post the journal entry to the account used on the bill.
  3. Enter a new check transaction and print- post to the account used on the Credit side of the journal entry.

 

 

Additionally, I'll be sharing these articles to help manage your checks in QuickBooks Desktop: Create, modify, and print checks.

Hey,

I have a check from July 2022 that did not clear yet. Bank was Credited and 5050 was Debited.

 

To remove the uncleared check, Can I:

1- Void the check

2 - Credit Bank and Debit 5050

3 - Debit Bank and Credit 5050

 

Thanks
