We discovered that the account is correct, but the payee name on a check is not correct. The check is unprinted...can we change the payee without having to void the check and redo the transaction?

If the check is being generated for the correct account but you wish to modify the check's payee, you can do so if the check has not yet been printed. Go to CheckWriter and select View/Print Checks. Locate the check and click View. The check will appear:

Click the Change Payee button on the toolbar. The Change Payee dialog box will appear:

You can modify the name, the PIN and/or the Tax ID here. Edit the text in the top portion of the dialog box to reflect the name you wish to change to. When you have made your changes, click Save. The check will now be updated:

Click Exit. You can now print the check with the modified payee.
