Thanks for getting back to additional information, @Frieaza.
I can assist you with the un-cleared or outstanding check in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).
In this, you can start by creating a Journal Entry (JE) to remove them from the outstanding check. However, I recommend consulting your accountant during this process. This is to ensure not to mess up your books and ensure you are guided to enter the necessary details into the correct fields.
Here’s how:
- Go to the Company menu.
- Select Make General Journal Entries.
- Fill out the fields to create your journal entry. Make sure your debits equal your credits when you’re done.
- Press Save & Close.
Go to this article for complete instructions if you want to manage your journal entries in QBDT: Create a journal entry in QuickBooks Desktop. When you're finished, I suggest opening the Journal report. This is to make sure that your entries are properly recorded. To accomplish this, choose Accountant & Taxes from the Reports menu.
- Go to the List menu, then select Chart of Accounts.
- Select and open the appropriate account from the list.
- Find the check transaction and put a checkmark under the Check column.
You can now move on to reconciling your transactions. I'm also including this article to help you understand how to correct errors when reconciling: Fix issues when you're reconciling in QuickBooks Desktop.
