Unvoid a voided cheque

You cannot unvoid a cheque in Sage Intacct. However, depending whether or not the associated AP purchase invoice was reversed, you can do one of the following.

  • If the cheque was voided but the AP purchase invoice is still open, you can recreate the cheque.
  • If the cheque was voided and the AP purchase invoice was reversed, you can either:
    • Create a manual payment and select Cheque as the payment method.

      Creating a manual payment creates both a cheque and an AP purchase invoice for the payment.

    • To reflect the original AP purchase invoice and cheque dates in the General Ledger, create another AP purchase invoice, pay it, and print a cheque.

View a list of voided cheques and drill-down to discover if a memo was entered explaining why the cheque was voided.

Recreate a voided cheque to pay an AP purchase invoice

If the AP purchase invoice is still open (you did not reverse it) and you need to pay it, you can recreate a cheque to appear in the Cheque register to replace the one that was accidentally voided.

  1. Go to Accounts Payable > All > AP purchase invoices > Pay AP purchase invoices.

  2. To use the same cheque number, select the Payment method of Record transfer, Cash, or ACH.
  3. Select Pay now.
  4. Enter the cheque number in Doc no.

    If you enabled warning on duplicate numbers, a warning message appears that the cheque number has already been used. Select OK to continue.

    If your company does not allow entering duplicate numbers, append the document number with an identifier, such as a letter. This lets you know that this is a duplicate.

  5. Select Save.

A cheque with the same cheque number appears in the Cheque register for the payment.

Recreate a voided cheque and reversed AP purchase invoice

There are two options for recreating a voided cheque for which the AP purchase invoice was reversed.

Option 1: Create and post a manual payment

When you create a manual payment, you create both a cheque and an AP purchase invoice for the payment. Make sure to select Cheque as the payment method.

Option 2: Recreate the AP purchase invoice and cheque to reflect the original dates posted to the GL

This method takes you through the process of recreating the original AP purchase invoice, then recreating the cheque.

  1. Recreate the AP purchase invoice.
  2. Select the AP purchase invoice for payment on the Pay Bills page.

    To use the same cheque number, select the Payment method of Record transfer, Cash, or ACH.

  3. Select Pay now.
  4. Enter the cheque number in Doc no.

    If you enabled warning on duplicate numbers, a warning message appears that the cheque number has already been used. Select OK to continue.

    If your company does not allow entering duplicate numbers, append the document number with an identifier, such as a letter. This lets you know that this is a duplicate.

  5. Select Save.

A cheque with the same cheque number appears in the Cheque register for the payment.
