Unvoid a voided check

You cannot unvoid a check in Sage Intacct. However, depending whether or not the associated bill was reversed, you can do one of the following.

• If the check was voided but the bill is still open, you can recreate the check.
• If the check was voided and the bill was reversed, you can either:
  • Create a manual payment and select Check as the payment method.

    Creating a manual payment creates both a check and a bill for the payment.

  • To reflect the original bill and check dates in the General Ledger, create another bill, pay it, and print a check.

Recreate a voided check to pay a bill

If the bill is still open (you did not reverse it) and you need to pay it, you can recreate a check to appear in the Check register to replace the one that was accidentally voided.

1. Go to Accounts Payable > All > Bills > Pay bills.

2. To use the same check number, select the Payment method of Record transfer, Cash, or ACH.
3. Select Pay now.

4. Enter the check number in Doc no.

   If you enabled warning on duplicate numbers, a warning message appears that the check number has already been used. Select OK to continue.

   If your company does not allow entering duplicate numbers, append the document number with an identifier, such as a letter. This lets you know that this is a duplicate.

5. Select Save.

A check with the same check number appears in the Check register for the payment.

Recreate a voided check and reversed bill

There are two options for recreating a voided check for which the bill was reversed.

Option 1: Create and post a manual payment

When you create a manual payment, you create both a check and a bill for the payment. Make sure to select Check as the payment method.

Option 2: Recreate the bill and check to reflect the original dates posted to the GL

This method takes you through the process of recreating the original bill, then recreating the check.

1. Recreate the bill.

2. Select the bill for payment on the Pay Bills page.

   To use the same check number, select the Payment method of Record transfer, Cash, or ACH.

3. Select Pay now.

4. Enter the check number in Doc no.

   If you enabled warning on duplicate numbers, a warning message appears that the check number has already been used. Select OK to continue.

   If your company does not allow entering duplicate numbers, append the document number with an identifier, such as a letter. This lets you know that this is a duplicate.

5. Select Save.

A check with the same check number appears in the Check register for the payment.
