Hello,
I would perform the following steps:
1. Create a Payment Journal as follows -
Posting Date - You put the correct date to Void Check
Document Type - Payment
Document No. - use from Number series
Ext Doc. No. - Old Check Number
Account Type - Bank Account
No. - Bank Account from List
Put a description
Amount - Positive Amount of Check
Bal. Account Type - G/L Account to post the Void too (this is used only briefly as you will create a Purchase Invoice to create the Payable and offset the Purchase Line to this account)
Bal Acct No. - G/L Account (i.e. Prepaid of Accrued Exp.)
Bank Payment Type - Manual
Post the above. This will Debit Bank (Cash) and Credit the G/L Account in Balancing No.
2. Create new Purchase Invoice to pay the Vendor of the voided check. On the Purchase Line make this a G/L Account and No. = Number in the above Bal Acct. No.
Post Purchase Invoice and now you can cut a new check to Vendor.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Steve
