Use this program to enter handwritten checks, which pay off invoices that are not currently in the Open Documents file. This bypasses the Check Print portion of processing.
You can use this program to enter an invoice and pay it off in the same entry program, for instance an invoice comes in C.O.D. and someone in the accounting department has to write out a manual check.
If a handwritten check pays an existing document in the Open Documents file, enter the check through the Manual Check Entry program.
The non-invoice manual check number entered cannot match any of the check numbers in the bank transaction file. You cannot enter non-invoice checks for vendors on hold.
Complete check information must be entered including the following: bank number, check number, vendor number, check date and check amount. Complete document information must also be entered including document number, invoice date, amount paid, discount taken, the general ledger expense number(s) and memo.
Non-invoice check information appears on the next Check Register and is updated during the optional Check Register update. A non-invoice check updated by the register will create a zero balance open document in the open documents file and a payment transaction in the transaction file.
Access this program by clicking Accounts Payable>Checks>Noninvoice Check Entry.
