The Check Register Report can be used for a manual checkbook reconciliation. It lists all payroll and vendor checks for the period that you specify, for all checkbooks or for a selected checkbook. The report includes one line for each processed check and a count of the included checks. Options available for this report include the ability to exclude voided checks, to show direct deposit information, and to show vendor checks separately.
Note: If you enter a vendor transaction into the Transactions dialog, it will display in the Check Register report only if Payroll CS or vendor check writing was being used for this client at the time the transaction was entered.
Open the File > Print dialog by using one of the following methods: (1) clicking the Print button on the toolbar, (2) clicking the Print Reports icon on the shortcut bar, or (3) choosing Print Reports from the File menu. On the Reports tab in the Print dialog, double-click Check Register to move this report to the Selected pane. With Check Register still highlighted, click the Options button to open the print options dialog for this report.
