Quickbooks desktop, could make the journal entries for you, but Quickbooks online does not.  Here is how to make the manual journal entries when voiding a check from a prior fiscal period.

1. Void the check in the previous fiscal period.

2. Create 1 journal to debit the bank account and credit the expense account in the previous fiscal period. Note in the memo section TO VOID CHECK #_________ on ________.

3. Reverse journal entry in the current period (on the date you write the new check).

4. Write a new check/payment in the current period.

 

Reconcile the voided, uncleared check with the journal entries.
