I've used Sage 50 for years, but I've just started using Sage 50 Professional on which I can do cheque runs. However, this is something I've not done before so could anyone give me some pointers.
I downloaded the trial version of Sage 50 Pro to get an overview so I can see it's quite straightforward if the cheque run is just paying all the suppliers all the outstanding invoices, but what if I don't want to pay all the invoices on one supplier, i.e. an invoice is in dispute, would I do this as a one off so I can select the invoices that I want to pay?
Also, what happens with settlement discounts? If the supplier has been set up correctly and the settlement discount is in the settings does it automatically work it out?
If anyone has a step by step guide that would be REALLY handy!
Hi, if you raise the payment is usual way however leave the cheque number blank. Once complete go to cheques and where you are able to issue cheques in a run - enter the first cheque number. There is also the option of a remittance advice. I believe you have the batch option on the professional. Can raise various supplier payments and set criteria (ie due) - tick payments you would like to make

Thanks for your reply Donna, but what do you mean when you say raise the payment in the usual way? Do you mean bank / supplier payment, i.e. a single cheque?
Yes thats right, either enter the details individually (bank/supplier payment etc) or using the batch method. Once completed as many as required go to cheques - mark the ones required and enter first cheque number.

Hi Donna, May I also ask you a question. I have entered some cheques, however, at the time of then printing the cheques I note that the date is wrong. I corrected the dates via maintainance > correction. When I returned to raise the cheque again the cheque date remains the same. I am unsure how to amend this. It may be simpler to delete the payment and make the payment again? Or is there another alternative? With thanks San
