Handwritten Check, Record Manual Payments, Traditional Payments
The Handwritten Check feature allows you to record a payment for an individual invoice that you have manually generated – in other words, not by using the computer check process. This feature is available in the Vendor Invoice window. But it also allows you to post and record the payment of said invoice in one single transaction.
Let's review these options.
If your Vendor Invoice has been already posted, you can record a manual payment by clicking on the Pay HW Check button.
Enter the GL account number for the bank account; check number and posting date.
Click Process.
Respond to the prompt. “Are you sure you want to pay this invoice? Click Ok for Yes or Click Cancel for No.”
When the check payment is processed you will receive this alert.
If the invoice has a VOUCHER status, when clicking the Pay HW Check button and entering the check number as before, the system will create two journal entries: one related to the posting of the vendor invoice and one more for the check record.
