How to delete or reverse a voided check

How to delete, reverse, or "un-void" a voided check or paycheck in Sage 50 Accounting.

When Sage 50 voids a transaction it creates a second transaction of the same type for the opposite amount.  The void transaction has the same reference number as the original, ending with a V.

 EXAMPLE: If you void check number 100, for $500, Sage 50 creates check number 100V, for -$500 

To reverse a void, delete the void transaction.  This will cause the original transaction to become active again.

1. Click Lists, Vendors & Purchases, Payments or Write Checks for AP checks.
   • For payroll checks, click Lists, Employees & Payroll, Paychecks.
2. Double-click Check Register or Payroll Check Register.
3. Locate the voided check (the original check number followed by V).
4. Double-click the check to open it.
5. Click Delete, then Delete again.
6. Click Yes.
7. The original check is now active.  If you wish, you can now delete it as well.

 NOTE: You can't delete a void for a transmitted Direct Deposit check.  To remove it, restore a backup you made before voiding the Direct Deposit.
