Last 6 checks printed are not showing up

Jan 24, 2006 6 Replies

Hey all. Now I've done it.



For some reason, the last 6 bills I paid in QB (v. 2004) are not posted under Checking Account.



I did everything like I always do. Enter Bills | Pay Bills | Print Checks.



Now when go to write a single check I see I'm still at the same check# I was at this AM before I paid bills. The new checks are not listed under Checking Account in the register. However, they are all showing up in their accounts for bills paid.



What should I do now? If I enter the 6 checks individually under Checks should I enter an account for each? If I do won't I have double amounts... paid each bill twice?



Thanks for the advice.



Do you have more than one bank account? Check other accounts if you have them.

Look at the 'accounts for bills paid' and drill down to find the payment and see what account was used for the bank.

To do the drill down go to the paid bill, then press control & then H you will get all the info here you need to bring up the check.

Did you pay them out of petty cash that you have as a "bank account?"

Nope. I have only one checking account and I have no petty cash accounts or any other accounts listed under the check tab.

What a dope I am.

My date was messed up. I was behind in posting some paid invoices for last year and I had set the date to 12/1/2005 and never changed it back to yesterdays date before I paid the bills.

Those 6 checks were there but for last year. Now I need to fix the dates on those 6 bills.

Wouldn't it be nice if QB would sound an alarm before you could print a check out of date like that. Just give you a heads up.

Thanks for the help.

I'll give you a heads up. The alarm feature you mentioned has been around for years in QB, it is called the closing date.

Preferences, change date of check to date printed.
