Print AP Checks

After you preview a check to verify its accuracy, you can print it.

You must repeat this procedure for each check. If you are printing checks for a posting run that is partly complete, you may be able to select the posting run and continue at a later time.

If your firm uses the Deltek First Vision Essentials cloud version of Vision, the Print Payments option is not available. You can preview checks onscreen and then print the checks from the Preview window.

To print a check, complete the following steps:

1. From the Vision Navigation menu, click Accounting > Accounts Payable > Payment Processing.
2. On the Select Posting Run dialog box, select an existing posting run or create a new one.
3. On the Vendor Review tab of the AP Payment Processing form, select one or more vendors. Vision displays in the grid a list of all the vouchers and voucher payment data for the current vendor.
4. Select one or more vouchers and click Process Payments. Vision displays the following message:

   Warning: Payment processing makes permanent changes to your Deltek Vision database. Be sure you have reviewed your vouchers, settings, and cash requirements carefully before proceeding. Are you sure you want to proceed?

5. Click Yes to continue.

   If a payment is for a negative amount, Vision prompts you to confirm that you want to process the payment for the vendor. Click Yes to proceed or No to return to the Payment Processing form, where you can modify the payment.

6. Click the row for the bank or payee whose checks you want to process.
7. Examine the check stock that is loaded in your printer to ensure that it is the correct stock to use for this check run.
8. To align the check data to print correctly on the check stock you are using, click Payment Margins on the toolbar and use the AP Payment Margins dialog box to adjust the print margins.
9. On the grid toolbar, click Print Payments. To print using a previous version of Vision's printing technology (with slightly different formatting) press the CTRL key on your keyboard while you click Print Payments.
10. In the Printer Name field on the Print dialog box, specify the printer.
11. Click Print.
12. Repeat this procedure for each check to print.
13. Print a file copy of the checks.
