How to Write a Check

How to Write a Check

1) Select Quick Picks or Banking on the top of your screen and then select Write Checks
2) Select who the check is to be written to
Note: You can choose to show vendors, customers, employees, or other names you have written checks to before. You might have to Add Other Payee at the bottom, if the name is not listed. 
3) Enter amount and any Memo you might want to add
4) Click Add Disbursement and Select Account 
Note: You are writing a check out of your bank account, but it needs to reflect in a General Ledger account, as well. If you are unsure which account this check needs to be disbursed to, you might need to consult with your accountant. 
If this is a check that you might write again and want MaxxTraxx to memorize, select the box next to Memorize 

The balance will show as 0.00 after you add disbursements, this is not the check total, this means it is a balanced transaction. 

5) Confirm Bank, then Post and Print Check 

Or if you choose to Print Later, go to Banking then Print Checks when you are ready to print.
