Printing vendor payment cheques

Before printing vendor payment cheques

Consider the following points:

  • You must print any lien waivers before printing cheques.

    Click the Print lien waivers link in the lower portion of the 4-3-2 Pay Vendors window.

  • If applying a credit results in a zero payment amount to a vendor, you must print a $0 cheque to complete the invoice payment process.

    In the Report Printing window, select the Print $0 Cheques checkbox.

  • To record a payment you made by credit card (outside Sage 100 Contractor), by manual check, or through online banking, select Credit Card, Manual Cheque, or Online Banking for the Record payment made by option. Sage 100 Contractor processes the transaction, but does not print a cheque.

Caution! Only print accounts payable cheques from one company and from one computer at a time. Printing accounts payable cheques from one company and more than one computer at a time may cause duplicate cheque numbers and duplicate payments.

To print vendor payment cheques:

  1. Open the 4-3-2 Pay Vendors window.

    The total invoices of the vendors you selected using 4-3-1 Set Invoices to Pay appear in the grid area.

  2. Click Select All, or select individual vendors.

  3. From the Pay By list, select whether to pay by cheque, voucher, or credit card.

  4. Click [Pay Vendors].

  5. If you are paying by cheque:

    1. On the 4-3-5 Report Printing window, select the Report Form that suits your business. Your choices are 21-Open Stub, 22-Formatted Stub, and 23-No Job Stub.

    2. Click the Print records icon.

      When you print cheques, Sage 100 Contractor creates ledger transactions. You can also specify the sorting of the invoices on your cheque stub. Select the option to sort the invoices in the 4-3-5 Report Printing window. Sage 100 Contractor prints the invoice numbers on the cheque stub. However, sometimes more than one cheque stub is required to print all the invoices. You can print additional cheque stubs with void cheques to complete the printing of the invoices. In the Report Printing window, select the Multiple Cheques checkbox.

    If you are paying by voucher, on the 4-3-4 Report Printing window, select the appropriate Report Form, and then click the Print records icon.

    If you are paying by credit card, the program displays the Credit Card Selection window. Specify a Card Issuer Account, a Credit Card, a Trans#, a Trans Date, and then click OK.
