Void/Cancel a cheque

Summary

How do I void/cancel a cheque?

Detailed Description

A. If the cheque transaction does not form part of a bank reconciliation that you have previously recorded:

1. Highlight the required cheque transaction in Cashbook.
2. Click the Void button.
3. Click Yes to confirm.

A transaction that has been "voided" will remain in the list of transactions (displayed in a contrasting colour) but at a zero amount so that totals are not affected. This procedure is useful for recording cancelled cheques but maintaining the continuity of cheque numbers in the accounting system.

B. Otherwise:

Add a payment on the Cashbook screen, and using the same account code as the first cheque enter a minus amount to counter the unwanted cheque.
