Pre-Check Writing Report

Application Overview

 

The Pre‑Check Writing Report shows you exactly what is going to be paid to each vendor and how much cash and discounts are going to be taken for each of the invoices to be paid.  It also shows you the exact amount of cash required for the check run.  You should print this report when you think you are done with the payment selection process and are ready to print checks.  If any of the selections shown on this report are incorrect, they should be corrected and then this report should be run again.  When everything looks right, print checks.  It is essential to correct selection errors before checks are printed.
