Void a check

You might want to void a check if:

• The check didn't print properly
• The check was lost or damaged
• You need to provide a voided paper check for direct deposit or electronic transfer

When you void a check, QuickBooks changes the check amount to zero, and retains the original check date. The check is not removed, so you have it for your records.

Void a check

1. Find and open the check that you want to void.
2. Click More at the bottom of the page and select Void. (If you're in the register, select the transaction and click Edit.) If there is no Void option, this is a type of transaction that can't be voided, such as a paycheck or a tax payment.
3. Click Yes to confirm voiding the transaction.
