ADVANTAGE
Salon Software and
Spa Software's
Check Writer program
allows you to write checks without entering a bill first. Remember you
can not pay a previously entered bill here.
First select the bank
account from which you want to write the check from, then if this is a
vendor check select a vendor by vendor id or vendor name. If this is
not a vendor check, have the check next to vendor off, then you can
enter a name of the payee on the check itself. The check number will
default to the next check number associated with the bank account
selected. You can change that check number. You can also change the
date associated with the check as well. You can put in a future date or
a past date but you can not enter a date that is prior to the last
general ledger close. Once you enter the amount you will not that the
legal or the word interpretation of the amount will be displayed for you
on the check. You can if you wish type a Memo for the check; we highly
recommend entering one for your records. Distribute the check fully to
the correct general ledger accounts so that you can save the check.
Once you save the check you can print it. To enter another check,
select the Add New button from the tool bar. The Add New button is the
first button on the tool bar. To edit or delete checks that been
previously saved you must access the check register. The program uses
the quickbooks format for the 3-part and 2-part checks.
If you plan to use
ADVANTAGE
Salon Software and
Spa Software to print out your checks you must have your company and bank
information pre printed on your check.
ADVANTAGE
Salon Software and
Spa Software will not print out
your company name and account numbers on your checks. It is best to
order your computer checks from your bank.
A Check will credit the
asset account assigned to your bank account and debit the off setting
general ledger account you choose in the bank transactions screen.
Accounting Specifics:
Please remember that a debit and credit are strictly accounting terms
that do not necessary mean increase or decrease. In double entry
accounting, which the modern world uses to run almost every business in
the world you need at least one debit and one credit to complete a
transaction. |
