Batch Check Printing

Is there a way to print cheques from this program without a lot of tailoring?  We would liek to have the ability to select payables and print checks as a batch.  Currently I do not see that essential functionality in the program.

Hello Jeremy,

For now, this feature is not available in ERPNext. Following is the Github issue for it.

If interested, you can raise priority for this suggestion by placing a bounty for it.

Is this available yet?

This link says not found. Is there any movement on batch check printing? Our previous software had this and our bookkeeper really wants this back so she doesn’t spend hours going check by check.

Use case: we do our payables one day per week. She runs a report of what is due this week, creates the payments in payment entry. She wants to check all of the payments at once and type in the series of check (cheque) numbers and then let it print them all at once.

Does anyone have a status on this? I can’t imagine that all the companies using ERPNext are printing one check at a time using the payment entry screen and adding each supplier invoice up one at a time. Paying our payables used to take us about 45 minutes and now it’s over 5 hours.

Thanks-
Heather

Hi,
Is there any update on this? I am also trying to implement this for a company that has been using Quickbooks. Quickbooks has a very smoothing batch printing process for payables. This feature is very critical for successful implementation.

Second importance of this feature, even if not 100% equivalent. Should at least be able to:

  • use checkboxes to select Purchase Invoices to be paid and credits to be used from payables list with a field for entering $ value to be used (thus allowing short pay or extra payment)
  • on clicking new button for create payment entries a payment entry for each supplier is automatically created with $ applied to invoices/credits as noted. A status flag on payment entry would indicate not yet printed

At this point though still more work compared to Quickbooks can go to Payment Entry list filter by unprinted and print 1 at a time

We have not been able to get check printing working directly from erpnext print.
As we have adjusted the size of the cheque as its traditional cheque and not the A4 size. So it never prints properly.

Anyone using it directly from erpnext ? which printer is used? As special Cheque printers are expensive.

Is there an update on this?

Agree the ability to batch print checks is very important. This ability will really be important for SME companies as they may print 100-200 checks a week. Does this need a bounty??
