Enter a Payment to a Vendor Not on File
- From the Tasks menu, do one of the following:
- Press Enter to skip the Vendor ID field.
- Select the Pay to the Order of arrow button. Enter the vendor’s name and address in the window that appears.
- Once you’ve entered the name and address information, click OK.
-
Select the payment method.
Tip: You can click the Payment Method link to add, edit, or delete payment methods.
-
Enter the purchase on the Apply to Expenses tab.
Note: If you enter an amount in the Payment Amount field, the Apply to Expenses tab will populate with this amount on one line item. You might want to do this if you don't need to track any details about what this vendor has purchased.
- Click Print if you want to print and save the check. Otherwise, click the Save button.
If the line item contains serialized inventory, you will need to either add or select serial numbers for the item(s). Select the line item with the serialized inventory item, then select the Serial No button to enter or select serial numbers. Either the Serial Number Entry or the Serial Number Selection window appears, depending upon whether you entered a positive or negative quantity. Which window will appear? Enter or select the serial numbers you need and click OK when you're finished to return to the Payments window. However, if the payment has more than one line item that contains serialized inventory, you can select the OK/Next button to save the current entry and move to the next serialized item.
