Joint Check Reconciliation

When your customer pays you a joint check, you can receive the payment by following these steps:

1. Select the Plus icon (+) on the Toolbar, then select Receive Payment.
2. Enter the name of the customer
3. Enter the Amount , Payment method , and the Reference no. ( Note : Make sure you note the check number in the Reference no. )
4. Make an entry in the Memo field that this payment is included in the check with (other customer's name).
5. Make sure that the correct invoice is checked. You can uncheck the wrong invoice then manually check the correct one, if necessary.
6. You can either deposit the money to your checking account or to the Undeposited funds
7. Select Save and Close.

Make sure that the check number is the same and that you enter a descriptive memo. Next, group the payments so that they show as one deposit on the register:

1. Select the Plus icon (+) on the Toolbar then Bank Deposit.
2. From the Select payments included in this deposit section, mark all payments you want to be grouped together with a check. ( Note: This section only appears if there are recorded payments ready to be deposited.)
3. Make sure the total looks accurate. The total, in this case, should be the total amount of the joint check.
4. Select Save and Close.
