Rejecting a check to be printed

#1

Post by MBergman »

We have an item waiting for a check to be printed, but the check already printed and has cleared. Will there be any auditing problems if I reject the check at this point? New to the calling, not sure what the correct course of action is.

Edited to add... this check is from before I became finance clerk, the previous clerk doesn't know why it is there. Could it be that the check box to confirm the check printed correctly was not clicked?

Do not reject the check at this point. Doing so will create more problems than it solves. If the check has already been printed, the one waiting in the queue can be removed by printing it on waste paper and then clicking the confirmation that the check printed properly. Shred the waste paper printout.

That is most likely the case.

You don't even need to print it on paper. Just create the PDF and then close it without printing and then confirm that it printed correctly.
