Printing Vendor Name instead of Company Name on Check (QBDT)

I am working with a client where we are updating and correcting Vendor information.

 

In several cases, we have added company information/tax information to their vendor file but that has created an issue.  When he pays a bill for that vendor, it is printing the company name, not the vendor name on the check.

 

I know how to fix this problem in QBO but is there somewhere in QBDT (Pro 2019) where you can pick what line is used for paying checks (i.e. Vendor Name or Company Name)?

 

Thank you

I've got the steps you need to print the vendor's name on the check, GolfNut72.

 

Once you add the company information on the vendor's profile, the PRINT NAME ON CHECK AS field automatically sets the company as the default printing label in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

To print the check with the vendor's name, you can remove the company title on the PRINT NAME ON CHECK AS field from the Payment Settings on their profile.

 

 

Also, ensure not to select the Print company name and address when printing the checks.

 

To help you manage your checks in QuickBooks Desktop, you can read through this article: Create, modify, and print checks. In this write-up, you'll find steps on how to delete, void, and memorize a check as well as troubleshooting to resolve common issues.
