Bill paying addition????

[Jenni]

When paying bills by check with the software, and at the time of entry, I itemize parts of the bill to different categories, the posted amount (column named "amount paid") does not always agree with the amount indicated on the check (which generally has proper addition). How do you get the "amount paid" to conduct the proper addition?

Any suggestions on what to look for? The bills were all entered on the same day for this check and all bills were indicated to "pay this bill" on the same day.

Clarify your problem it looks like you are not paying via bills entered and that’s why you might not get the correct amount if the item charge is not as you are paying. If this payment is on a bill its much easier being that you place on the bill what you pay for and then all you do is pay the bill then it will always match to the right amount on the check.

Are you using "Pay Bills" or "Write Check"? If you use write check, you may have a stray amount in the distribution column (page way down) and that would be why it would not amount to what is on the $$ line.

If you are doing it through "Pay Bills" then maybe I am missing your point...it should work...
