Hi @lwarrensyn.

 

You'll have to delete the check and create an expense transaction in QuickBooks Online (QBO). I'll show you how.

 

 

Feel free to let us know if you need further assistance. Have a great day!


Really? This is horrible advice. A check and an expense are the same. Nothing needs changed!!!!!!!!

The only time an errant entry between the two would be appropriate is if you needed to "print" a check or use an asset account disallowed by check entry. You can even enter a reference (check) number in an Expense. Please do not make people work harder when what they did is nothing wrong.

 

This is probably the reason why desktop ONLY has check writing and not expense creation, although ability to credit from non-bank asset accounts without using a journal entry would be welcome (in desktop)
