Financially Void Checks

Overview

After a check is printed, sent out, and reported to be lost or not useable, you can Financially Void the check. The Payment Method must be either a Computer Check or a Manual Check before you can Financially Void the check.

GL Entries will be reversed using the Financially Void Date.

It is possible that the Financially Void Date could be in a different Accounting Period from the original Vendor Payment’s Posting Date. In that case, the financial statements for the original Accounting Period will stay the same.

Using the Financially Void Date, Application Entries will be reversed too.

It is possible that the Financially Void Date could be in a different Accounting Period from the original Vendor Payment’s Posting Date. In that case, the AP Aging report for the original Accounting Period will stay the same.
