QuickBooks 2011 includes a command and a window specifically for the purpose of recording and possibly printing checks.

When QuickBooks displays the Write Checks window, take the following steps to write a check.

QuickBooks keeps track of that accounts ending balance to the right of this menu.

If you dont know the check number yet because you havent printed the check, select the To Be Printed check box, which appears in roughly the middle of the Write Checks window.

You can click the small calendar button to select a date from a pop-up calendar if you dont want to type it out.

If you have previously paid the payee, you can click the arrow button at the right end of the Pay to the Order of field and select a payee from this list.

QuickBooks writes out the check amount on the line beneath the Pay to the Order Of field.

You need to record the address only if youre either going to print the check and the address will show through the address window or creating an online payment.

If youve told your bank that you want to do the online banking thing and have followed its instructions for setup, you can select the Online Payment check box.

If a check pays for several different types of expenses, the Expenses tab should show several different lines.

Optionally, edit the item description shown in the Description column.

If you want to print checks in a batch, after youve recorded the very last check that you want to print, click the down arrow to the right of the Print button.

When QuickBooks displays the Print menu, choose its Print Batch command.
