Steps for Check Printing

1. Select the Bank Account you wish to use. 

2. The system will suggest the number of the next check based on the last check number entered in ObjAcct.  Verify that this number is the same as the first check that will be loaded into the printer.  If the check numbers do not match, change Next Check # to correspond with the number of the first check in the printer.

3. Change Check Date if necessary.  By default,  Check Date will default to the current date.

4. Click on the Load button to see a list of all checks available for printing.

5. Verify the checks selected for printing.  You may defer the printing of a check to a later date by deselecting Select. 

6. Load your checks into the printer. If you are printing more than one check, click on Save & Preview to save your print selections and preview the checks in a report window on the screen.  The format of the check is determined by the Default Check Format assigned to the Bank Account in Chart of Accounts or the Default Check Format defined in Company Setup if a specific format is not setup for the Bank Account.

7. Examine the checks to confirm that they successfully printed.

8. Close the report window and confirm the results of check printing. 

9. Deselect any check that did not print successfully.

10. Complete printing by clicking on Confirm to record the printing of the check(s) and remove the check from the list checks to be printed.  Any checks that are not confirmed will remain in the list of checks to be printed.
