I have provided a handwritten check, how do I record them?

Handwritten cheques for bills are common and Zoho Books provides a provision to record them. Here’s how you can record it:

• Go to the Purchases module and choose Bills.
• Locate the bill for which you have issued a handwritten check.
• Click Record Payment and enter the relevant details.
• Select Check from the Payment Mode dropdown and choose Undeposited Funds account from the Paid Through dropdown.
• Save the payment.

Once the cheque clears, you can create a fund transfer entry in the respective bank account. To record it:

• Go to the Banking module on the left sidebar and click the bank account from which the amount was transferred.
• Click Add Transaction and choose Transfer To Another Account as the category.
• Enter the required details and, in the To Account field, associate the Undeposited Funds Account.
• Save the transaction.
