Edit a cleared check

Hi there

 

I have a cleared check that I need to edit. 

The "Print later" box at the top should not have been checked.

I'd like to actually change that and give this check an assigned number. I already have a number .. just want to update the check since it has been paid and cleared the bank. 

I'm assuming this will also remove this check from the "print now" screen.

I’d be glad to help you accomplish that, @BarbC.


You can open your checking account to modify the check you created. And yes, it removes from the Print now screen once the Print later box is unchecked.


Here’s how:

 

  1. Open your QuickBooks Desktop account.
  2. Go to your Lists menu, then Choose Chart of Accounts.
  3. Select your checking account.
  4. Locate the check. You can use the Sort by option to narrow down the result.
  5. Select it to open or press the Edit Transaction option at the top.
  6. Uncheck the Print later box and assign a number. Make some changes if needed.
  7. Click Save & Close after.


You can read this reference to learn more about managing checks in the program: Create, modify, and print checks. It includes steps on how to memorize, delete or void the said entry.

I printed a check for someone in Feb but it still shows up as unpaid and "to print."

How can I remove it from the pay bills section?
