Welcome to the QuickBooks family, @info1069.

 

Let me share some clarification about recording post-dated checks in QuickBooks Online.

 

Ideally, Post Dated Cheques (PDC) shall be kept inside the office or deposited to the bank for safekeeping. Upon due date, you can issue an official receipt against the check.

 

That's the time you can record the customer payment into the system. Some users use journal entry, and others use Write Check to record the transactions in advance.

 

There's a lot of treatment for post-dated cheques in accounting. If you're unsure how to record them, we strongly suggest talking with your accountant or a tax professional for expert advice.

 

In the meantime, you can check the following article for some insights about how to accept payments from customers:
