Checks Subtask

Use this tab of the Manage Purchase Order Vouchers screen at any time during voucher entry.

It stores information related to manual checks that have been issued against the voucher being entered.

To enter checks against vouchers that have already been entered and posted, use the Manage Manual Checks screen. You can record only one manual check for the voucher on this screen. If more than one manual check was issued for this voucher, you can enter one here, post the voucher, and then record the other check(s) on the Manage Manual Checks screen. It may be easier to post the voucher and record all manual checks for the voucher on the Manage Manual Checks screen.

Note:

You can use the Check tab only if the functional currency is the same as both the transactional currency and the pay currency.
