How do you print checks?
PayWindow print on pre-printed checks that you can obtain by clicking on Help and Ordering Forms in PayWindow.
Checks are printed from the Report Center where all reports are printed. Simply open the Report Center and select Check Printing from the list on the left of the Window.
Note that you have a number of options...
Don't Print Check - Selecting this check box will poke a check number in the transactions when you click the Print Now button that will display in the Check Register and some other reports if you are hand writing checks or using a different check writer.
Print Check Number - If you have checks that have the check number printed, select this check box and PayWindow will not print the check number on the checks.
Check Stub On Top? - If selected, the check will be in the middle of the three part check form with a stub on top and on the bottom. If unselected, you will have the check on top with two stubs under the check.
Dot-Matrix Code - If you are using an old dot matrix technology printer, select this option.
Check No. - Enter the starting check number desired here.
Sort By - This is self explanatory.
Comment - You can have a comment print on your checks. And example is \"Company Picnic on Saturday\".
Employee - This can be used to only print selected checks.
Period Date - This MUST match the date that you used to enter the payroll transactions as PayWindow is date sensitive allowing you to reprint any pay date needed.
Adjust left and top margin - In case you need to adjust the print positions.
Print Preview - Just what it says.
Print Now - The button you use to print the checks.
Design - An unsupported feature that is documented elsewhere in the Frequently Asked Questions.
