Use this screen to record checks that were printed outside the system for vouchers that have already been posted. You should use this screen if the voucher has been entered and posted and you need to record a manual check against it. You should also use this screen to record multiple manual checks against a single voucher. You can record only one manual check against a voucher in the Check subtask of the Enter A/P Vouchers screen. If a voucher was paid with more than one manual check before you entered it in the system, you can record it in one of two ways. First, you can enter the voucher and information about one of the manual checks in the Enter A/P Vouchers screen, then post it and enter the remaining manual checks in this screen. For the second method, you can enter the voucher in the Enter A/P Vouchers screen, post it, and record all the checks in this screen.
Use this function any time to record manual checks in the system. You must post a voucher before you can enter a check against it in this screen. If a voucher is not posted, you can enter the manual check using the Check subtask of the Enter A/P Vouchers screen. You must enter all manual checks issued in the accounting period before you produce final financial statements for the period.

Enter, or use Lookup to select, the code of the currency in which the check was issued. The pay currency default is selected in the Multicurrency subtask of the Maintain Vendors screen. If you have not selected a default for the vendor, the default pay currency will select your company's functional currency.
