If a check is entered and then balanced to an account that does not have a checkbook assigned to it, that check will appear in the Orphan Checks dialog.

  • To assign a check to a different checkbook, you must close the Bank Reconciliation window and then re-open it, choose the appropriate checkbook, and open the Orphan Checks dialog.

    To open the Orphan Checks dialog, choose Assign Orphan Checks from the Edit menu or from the F3 or right-click context menu when the Bank Reconciliation window is active.

    Note: The name of the current checkbook is displayed at the top of the Assign Orphan Checks dialog.
