Check numbers

I forgot to enter check number when QB ask me to enter. I left the "CHECK NO" column blank and click on [OK] (see figure below).

Then I could not find any "Bill Pmt -Check" row with blank num. Is there any way to re-enter a check number?

Hello BenTam,

 

Allow me to jump in to this thread and provide clear steps on how to enter the check number.

  1. Click on List and choose Chart of Accounts.
  2. Double-click on the bank account.
  3. Look for the check.
  4. In the NUMBER/TYPE column, replace the To Print with the check number.
  5. Press Enter on your keyboard and click on Yes when prompted to record the changes.

I've attached a screenshot for a visual guide. 

 

 

Let us know if you have any questions. Thanks!

Just go into Checking Register.  If you use the Home Screen it should be on the right or open the Chart of Accounts (Ctrl/A) and go into Checking from there.

 

Find the transaction and double click on the Payee Name.  That will open a window with the actual check.  Add the check number at the top and click on Save at the bottom.  You'll get a warning, but since you're not actually changing anything to do with the bill or payment, just say Yes/Okay.

Hi Pete,

 

I am using QuickBooks Desktop Premier Edition 2018. Should I select Banking->Use Register?

 

Do you mean the following screen? Where should I input the Check Number?
