Hi again, info-hsolutionst,

 

Thanks for clarifying this about your cheque. At this time, there's no feature available to change the name and amount display on the print template. You can order cheques exclusively designed for QuickBooks Online to make sure they align perfectly with the program's template. Here's an article to assist you with that: QuickBooks Cheques

 

I hope this helps!

Hi info-hsolutionst,

 

Welcome to the community family! QuickBooks Online offers two types of cheque you can select from in the program; Voucher and Standard. I'll show you how to change between those in your account.

 

Choosing your settings to print cheques in QuickBooks Online is quick and easy.

  1. Select + New.
  2. Select Print Cheques.
  3. At the bottom of the page, select Print setup.
  4. Select the type of cheques you have: voucher or standard.
  5. Note: Depending on your region, there may only be one type available.
  6. Load blank paper into your printer. You'll print on blank paper first, so that if you need to correct alignment, you won't waste actual cheques.
  7. Select View preview and print sample, then choose the Print icon.

I hope this helps! Have a nice day.

Hi Patricia,

 

Thank you for your reply.

 

The issue I have is that on my cheque first is name and then amoumt but in QB it is the other way around.

 

How can I change that?

 

Thanks,

Isar

    My current cheques are "Voucher, Voucher, Cheque". This makes it easier when paying bills for me.  I staple it to the invoices being paid, send for signing and tear off the the "voucher, cheque" and stick it in the mail.

    When I purchased QB I did not imagine that I would have to take apart my current cheque stock and move the cheque part to the top and tape it back together for printing. To make it Cheque, Voucher, Voucher. I have to do this as well to pay my employees.  One whole year of doing this and I still have a lot of unused cheques to go.  If I order new ones, QB will probably make it so we can customize the way we want :)

      Hi McLeod,

       

      Thanks for connecting with us here.  I can see the importance of being able to print your voucher cheques without having to dismantle them.  QuickBooks Online features provide the option to select the format when printing cheques.  I'll be happy to show you how.

       

      There are two ways to print cheques, voucher or standard.  You can select the format from the print/preview option at the bottom of the cheque screen.  Here's how:

       

      1. Click on +New in the top left and then Cheque

      2. Using the History icon in the top left, select the cheque from the list.  Hit View More to expand the list.

      3. At the bottom, click Print or Preview and then Print Cheque

      4. Click on Print Setup

      5. Choose Voucher or Standard

      This is where you'll see the cheque located at the top of the voucher as you've mentioned.  For future use, you may opt to order cheques from Intuit to minimize the need for alterations that can be time consuming for you.

       

      Follow these steps for Payroll cheques:

       

      1. From the Gear in the top right, select Payroll Settings

      2. Choose Pay cheque printing

      3. Make your selection and hit OK

       

      At this time, there's no way to re-order the layout of the voucher option.  However, you can make a suggestion to our Development Team for feature updates moving forward.  We appreciate any recommendations you may have to improve your overall experience with QuickBooks Online.

       

      Please don't hesitate to reach back out if you have any other questions.  We'd be glad to assist!

      Thanks for your reply.  I guess that method would work if I was using the online version of QB, however, I am using the Desktop Version

        Hi. Our  bankers have made some mandatory alternations to the formatting of cheques. How can I get Quickbooks to print using a new template?

        I have just switched on of my companies over to QB Premier Desktop but my cheques are voucher, cheque, voucher.  Is there anyway to set this up for printing cheques?

        Hello MAB2023. Just to make sure we're both on the same page, are you asking if it's possible to convert the vouchers into cheques so they can be recognized in the Print Cheques module for printing?
