TY for your prompt response!  I know I can make the manual entries ... BUT the transactions are going to download from the bank ... I somehow need to accept the deposit of the funds from the uncashed / cancelled check (from 2017 - books have been closed); and then reissue payment to the vendor (but per books the vendor has already been paid).  When the deposit hits, who do I attribute it from (the vendor? but the vendor is not really paying me)  and then when I reissue, I am paying the vendor - but, per our books, the vendor was already paid in 2017 (am I making sense?).  I need the new deposit and the reissued check to cancel each other out ...  and need entries to be precise and correct ....
