How do I delete an owner check from a previous run, change owner name (as person is deceased) and recut the check to the correct dependent?

You can void the check and send it to suspense.

Then go to Utilities, Division of Interest Utilities, Transfer Division of Interests to transfer the interest to the new owner(s). Mark the box to transfer history and suspense as well and choose the run the check was created in.

You can then go to Utilities, Clear Owner Suspense to create a check for the new owner or just let it sit in suspense until the next distribution at which time it will be released.

Please refresh my memory on how to reissue a lost royalty check.

You can locate that check on the Tasks > Check Processing > Check Register screen, and then click the R button on the toolbar to re-issue it. This will void the original check, and place a new copy of it in the check register, waiting to be printed. The re-issued check should have the same stub info on it that the original did.

We have a long list of outstanding checks. Would there be any problems in SherWare if we voided checks that are 5 plus years old and issued new ones?

You can reissue these checks. Make sure that you reissue them instead of voiding them. You can press the "R" button in the toolbar to re- issue them. This will void the original check and re-issue it in one step.
