Checks can be created manually (choose Add Check) or created automatically through the Posting of Accounts Payable. (setup required)

If you want AP processing to automatically create a check entry in the checkbook, the System Setup: Accounts Payable needs to be properly defined.

The checks are typically printed in batches through the Checks To Print screen.

If a check entry does not have a Reference number, then it has not been printed yet.
If a check needs to be reprinted, highlight the entry and select the "Send To Print [F8]" button.
Choose "Add Check" in the upper right to manually create new entries.
