In looking over this message board I see that this has been an issue for more than 5 years and Quick books has done nothing to correct the problem. You would think that a company would address its paying customers complaints and not give them work arounds that do not fix the issue. If you can develop a new layout for your invoices, you should be able to have a contact name for a vendor and not have it print on a check. This seems to me to be something in the program coding that would be an easy fix for your I.T. department if only someone would bother to mention it. 

On behalf of myself and many other displeased customers who have no choice but to be forced to use your software. please fix this simple request.
