Void a cheque and reuse the cheque number

If you confirm a cheque and then find an error, you can void the cheque, then reuse the cheque number to you print a replacement. This is available when printing on blank check stock, only.

Have only one person print cheques from the selected at a time to avoid mistakenly issuing the same cheque number to a different transaction.

  1. Void the cheque in the Cheque register.

    1. On the Cheque register page, find the payment and select Void.

      Make a note of the cheque number, because you'll need it later.

    2. In the Void payment date window, select the date on which to void the payment.
    3. If you need to, reverse the AP supplier invoice by selecting the Reverse checkbox and enter a reversal date.

    If you already sent the cheque to the customer, contact your bank to let them know you need to void the cheque with them. Voiding the cheque in the Cheque register only voids the payment in Sage Intacct.

  2. Re-issue the payment on the Pay AP supplier invoices page.

    If you need to re-issue the AP supplier invoice as well (you reversed the AP supplier invoice in the Cheque register), go to the AP supplier invoices page to recreate it.
