Orion gives you the ability to print a check on the fly without having to go through the process of entering and posting a voucher. Upon printing the Quick Check, Orion creates an undistributed voucher that you may then distribute and post at a later date.  (Note: The voucher will have a status of “Incomplete/Quick Check”).

To Print a Quick Check:

1. From the button bar click Action and select Quick Check. The following screen appears:

2. Choose your bank (the system will default to the current period/year). 

3. Based on the bank you choose, the system will default to the next available check number for that bank.

4. The system will default to the current date for the check.

5. Choose your vendor (F8 or Look-up).

6. If you need to send the check to an address different from the one associated with the vendor, click Change Address and do one of the following:

•Change for this check only (to use the new address only for this check)

•Change for Vendor (to update the Vendor file with the new address; you will be prompted with a contact screen for the vendor; fill in fields as appropriate). 

7. Once you have verified all information entered is correct, click Print and Save.

8. Review the printed check to make sure it is accurate, and confirm that the check printed correctly.

•If the check did not print correctly, select NO when the system asks if the check printed correctly, and tell the system whether to void the check (a pre-printed check will have to be voided as it cannot be reused).

•If you confirm the check printed correctly, Orion updates the Bank Reconciliation file and creates an undistributed and unposted voucher (with a status of Incomplete/Quick Check).

Posting a Quick Check

The procedure for posting a Quick Check is the same as posting a voucher. In order for Quick Check processing to be completed, the system to be completely updated and General Ledger transactions to be created, you must distribute and post the voucher created by the Quick Check.
