Cheques printing out of order

When you select AP supplier invoices to pay, or expense reports to reimburse, the payments are sent to the Print cheques page for printing and confirmation. By default, cheques print in the order in which they are listed on the Print cheques page, which might not be based on their payment date.

Solution: Sort cheques by payment date

  1. On the Print cheques page, select the Cheque style, then select the .
  2. Select More filters.
  3. Select Add or edit under the Sort by option.
  4. Add Date to the Selected items window.
  5. Select Done.
  6. Select Apply filters.

Example

Say you selected to pay an AP supplier invoice with a payment date of October 15, 2022. You then select another payment with a date of September 30, 2022. When you go to the Print cheques page, the AP supplier invoice with a payment date of October 15 will be listed before the one for September 30, which means it will also print before the one for September 30, throwing off the cheque printing order.

To print the cheque for September 30, 2022 first, you can either:

  • Manually select to print the cheque for September 30, 2022 and select Print. Then, select the cheque for October 15, 2022 and select Print for that payment.

OR

  • Sort cheques by date. In the More filters section of the Print cheques page, select to Sort by Payment date. Select Apply filters, then select all cheques to print.
