There are two ways for generating checks from payment vouchers. The first method described below is to generate a check for a single vendor. Normally this method should be used for an ad hoc check request for a single vendor. It allows a quick generation of a check that can't wait for a normal check run. As all accounts payable activity, it starts from the Vendor View from the main Argus screen:
Double click a vendor with the right mouse button -- this will pop up the accounts payable transaction menu. Select Process Checks option from this menu:
This is the screen that shows the vouchers that have been selected for payment and for which a check will be created. The Vendor group box displays vendor ID and Name.
The Last Check for this Vendor group box shows the check number, check date and amount of the last check written for this vendor.
This Check group box is used for entering the check being requested, the amount field contains the amount of the check. This is the sum of the check amount for each invoice listed below in the control list.
Pressing OK will create the check.
The other method is the more normal way of processing checks. Using the Task Wizard run the create check task. This will go through the entire vendor list based upon a predefined criterion e.g. vendor type, etc. and generate checks for a whole check printing run.
