Void Check

Void Check allows for a seamless way to void any kind of check, mark it as reconciled, identify it using Transaction Journal and Recap Transaction, put a ‘rubber stamp’ on the transaction window and print the check.

A Void Check option is available in the Edit menu and in the right-click menu for Spend Money, Pay Refund and Bank Register (Spend Money only) transactions.

Transaction Journal and Recap Transaction will show the transaction as VOID and the memo field is updated on each transaction.
