Cancel postdated check

Use the Vendor postdated checks form to cancel a postdated check issued to a vendor. For more information, see Vendor postdated checks (form).

You can cancel a posted postdated check when:

• The check is returned by the bank.
• The check is applied to an incorrect invoice.
• A cash payment is made against the check.

1. Click Accounts payable > Common > Postdated checks > Vendor postdated checks.
2. Select a postdated check that you registered and posted. For more information, see Register and post a postdated check for a vendor.
3. Click Cancel postdated check to cancel the postdated check. The Postdated check status field is updated to Cancelled.
4. Close the form to save your changes.

If the Post journal entries for postdated checks check box is selected in the General ledger parameters form, the transaction for the check is reversed in the vendor payment journal. If the Post journal entries for postdated checks check box is not selected, the vendor payment journal for the check is deleted.
