How to void a nonissued check?

Situations may occur when a check is voided before it is issued or recorded. To maintain a complete audit trail, it is necessary to record the check number as a voided check. This situation may be the result of a printer malfunction or damaged check stock.
To void a nonissued check

1 On the Accounts Payable Main menu, click Manual Check Entry.

2 In Manual Check Entry, enter information at the Bank Code, Check Number, and Check Date fields.

3 At the Check Amount field, type .00 for the check amount.

4 Click the Lines tab. An "Is this a void check?" message appears.

5 Click Yes to record the check number as a voided check. The words ***VOID CHECK*** will print for that check number on the Check Register.

NOTE You cannot void a check that has previously paid invoices.
