Void check problem w/Check Entry Applied

trin

Hi,

How do I void a check that was written in April? I can not "void check" due to this message: Statement Status must be Open in Check Ledger Entry Entry No.='XXX. The status for this check said " Check Entry Applied". I checked the help on this Check Entry Applied, and still not sure what does it mean. Can I still void this check?

Thanks
Trin

This field shows the statement status of the check ledger entry.

You can use this field to indicate whether the check ledger entry has been applied to and by which ledger entry types. The available statement status are:

Open: The ledger entry has not yet been fully applied to.

Bank Account Ledger Applied: The ledger entry has been applied to by a bank account ledger via the Reconciliation facility.

Check Ledger Applied: The ledger entry has been applied to by a check ledger via the Reconciliation facility.

Closed: The ledger entry has been fully applied to.

Which status do you have?

Oh, sorry I see you have Check Ledger Applied.
I also can't see any further help about trying to void a check once it's not open anymore. We were going to start using the Check Rec soon but, if this is a problem perhaps we will wait too.

I'm guessing if you reconciled the bank statement already - that check would have been already paid off and therefore not-voidable anymore. correct me if I'm wrong but the statement should only include "cleared" items.

If this is the case - I would have to do ledger entries to reverse the $$ flow. Let's see if anyone else can chime in on this first O:)
I feel your pain.

As Harry stated, you cannot void a check once you did a bank reconciliation against that check.

Wouldn't make too much sense if you voided a check that's been cleared.
