Voiding a check is the process to follow when a mistake has been made while issuing a check. It cancels the original transaction and renders the check null and void, so that the correct amount is reflected in the account and your transaction history stays accurate.

One Church Software has a built-in Void and reissue action that voids the original check and queues a replacement in one step.

There are two steps to voiding a check: locate the check, then void and reissue it.

Go to Accounting > Print Checks in the left-hand navigation. At the top of the Queue tab, choose the Register the check was written from (for example, 1000 - Checking).

Click Filter and set Pending print? to No to show checks that have already been printed. You can also narrow the list by Check #, Payee, or Memo/Description.

Select the check you want to void, then choose Void and reissue by clicking on the 3-dots menu or going to Bulk Actions. Confirm in the dialog that appears. This voids the original check and adds a replacement to the print queue, ready to be printed again — so you do not need to re-create the check manually.

The reissued check appears in the print queue, ready to print. See How do I print checks? for details.
