Thank you, I do know how to enter journal entries. I also know how to write checks, enter bills and pay them, make deposits, all of these tasks I am very familiar with.

My question was specifically regarding the subject at hand: voiding checks from prior periods without changing those prior periods. you said it could be complex. Then you offered a simple solution. I have seen many workarounds suggested here that did seem rather complex, or at least confusing, I was hoping you could make sense of them.

But it's ok. the suggestion you provided seems to have accomplished what I needed.

Thank you,

Angela
