You can customize the Time Period used for your report either by selecting a Reporting Period and As of date or by indicating a Start and End date. These fields are mutually exclusive so you can only use one or the other. If the Start and End dates are completed, those will be used, otherwise the Reporting period and As of date will be used. In the example below, the report will be for the current month as of 02/01/2018 because the Start date and End date are blank.

In the filters portion of the screen you can select the specific Checking account that you wish to report on or report on all accounts at once by leaving the dropdown with the default values. All bank accounts, even entity private bank accounts, will be options on this list. Note: The Entity Private checking accounts will only be displayed for those entities you are permitted to access.

There are many filter options available on this screen that are useful for customizing this report to be just the way you like it. Feel free to peruse the various filters and test them out to find which ones best fit your needs.

When this functionality is available the word ‘Void’ will be in blue. If the word is displayed in black then either the check is already voided or has not yet been confirmed.
