Vendor check detail button brings up complete payroll detail for any vendor. Anyone have a way to prevent this?

Thank you for posting your concern in the Community regarding the vendor check detail button that displays complete payroll details for any vendor, @yujm. Allow me to clarify things so I can provide an exact resolution based on your situation.

Could you please specify the exact page where you found the Vendor Check Detail button? Is it on your vendor's check or the employee's paycheck? Also, kindly provide a screenshot for visual reference.

If you're paying for a vendor or a contractor, you'll need to write a check. However, those transactions do not have the button in question.
If you're referring to a payroll check for your employees then, you can see a Paycheck detail button which brings up the year-to-date and other details including the amount of the paycheck. However, if you want to prevent that information from bringing up, especially the year-to-date amounts, the option to do so is unavailable.

On the other hand, if you're working in the Reports tab of the transaction, please note that clicking the Check Detail button will route you to the complete check detail report. This report displays a list of all the items you've paid for with each check.
