How to enter check-by-phone transactions in QB Pro 2002?

Hello,

Does anyone in the group know how to properly enter a transaction ( bill payment) that was paid by check via the phone? Ordinarily, I would have just printed the check and mailed it out, but in this case I needed to get the bill paid as quickly as was possible. Now I'm trying to figure out how to post it?

For comparison, Quicken allows you to treat a check as an electronic payment and records the transaction, but doesn't use a check number. That works out fine. Why can't QB Pro do the same? Any ideas?

I suppose that I could just use the next check number, but I really like the way Quicken handles it better. Any thoughts or solutions?

Thanks in advance to those who post a reply here.

Peter.

  1. Enter it as a check without a check number.
  2. Enter it as a check with something like "Phone" for the check number.
  3. Enter it as a check and put anything you want in the phone number field (subject to space limitation).

It does, to the extent that the check number doesn't have to be a number. Put whatever you want in the "Check Number" field (I use the names of my favorite fruits except for web payments to IRS - there I use name of famous pirates).
