The Payment Selection Register should always be printed before printing checks. This will allow you to Reverse a selection before the check is printed. After the checks are printed and Registered you must use Check Reversal and follow these directions:

Re-instating payable so check can be re-issued at a later time:

1. Issue a Vendor Credit or reissue invoices.
2. Do a G/L Journal Entry to wipe out the second posting to the expense(credit) accounts and A/P account(debit).

or

Voiding payable also:

3. Do a G/L Journal Entry to wipe out first occurrence of invoice to expense(credit) and A/P account(debit).

 

Notes:

4. Check Reversal reverses the check on the Check Register.
5. Check Reversal updates G/L for A/P account and cash account but, does not reinstate the invoices (payable portion) that the reversed check paid.
6. Check Reversal does not set up a liability (payable portion) for the vendor.
7. Causes A/P aging and G/L Account Payable account to disagree if the above procedure is not followed.
