Vendor Check Setup

This menu allows you to modify vendor check formats used by the SherWare. These are the checks created automatically during a run closing for Fixed Expenses and expenses entered directly on the well expenses by well (8/8ths) window. This will be used to add a logo, signature, or adjust the location of the address so it fits with your envelopes.

Vendor checks for expenses entered on the Enter Bills window will be printed out of QuickBooks, so will not be using these formats.

Refer to the Report Designer topic for instructions on modifying each of the formats.

Several options are available under this menu. You only need to modify the format that corresponds with the "Check Type" specified in the Check Printing Preferences under the Accounts Payable Section.

You can modify the following vendor check formats:

Vendor Dot-Matrix - (Stub Below) (apchekdb)

Vendor Dot-Matrix - (Stub Above) (apchekda)

Vendor Laser - (Stub Below) (apcheklv)

Vendor Laser - (Stub Above) (apchekla)

Vendor Laser - (Middle Check) (apcheklc)

Vendor Laser - (No Stub) (apchekln)

Vendor Custom Format (apchekcf)

MICR Laser - (Stub Below) (apchekle)

MICR Laser - (No Stub) (apchekln)

For example, if you have "Laser (Stub Below)" selected in the check printing preferences then you will choose "Vendor Laser - (Stub Below)" on this menu in order to modify that format.

BACKUP!
It is very easy to make mistakes when adjusting the margins or changing some of the fields that overlap. Create a backup of the format before attempting to make changes. This ensures you will be able to quickly get back up and running if you need to reverse some of the changes. Create a backup of both the .FRT and .FRX files for the respective check format. These files will be found within the Checks folder.
