Hi there, @Rabee. I'll share some details about your concern so you can get through this and record post dated checks in your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.

 

You can record your post-dated checks through checks in QBO. You'll then post the amounts to your Accounts Payable (A/P) account. I'll gladly input the steps below so you can proceed. To begin, here's how:

 

  1. Access your QuickBooks Online company.
  2. On the left navigational bar, click the + New button.
  3. Select Check.
  4. Choose the Payee from the dropdown ▼.
  5. From the Bank account dropdown ▼, select the account the check withdraws money from.
  6. In the Category details, choose Accounts Payable and then complete the check fields you need.
  7. Select Save and close to close the check window. Or Save and new if you need to create another check.

 

A reminder,  If you choose a save option, this adds the check to your bank register, but only sends it to the print queue if you select Print later.

 

But since the transaction involves four accounts, I'd recommend consulting your accountant about how to deal with post-dated checks in QBO. This way, they can provide you with the best way to book the checks to those accounts.

 

In case you don't have one, see this page to get an accountant: Find a ProAdvisor.

 

Additionally, I've got you this article to help you track the amount of money moving in and out of your business and bank account: Track your cash flow in QuickBooks Online.
