    • For an 1120, 1120S, or 1065 client, you can create tax adjusting entries directly to a tax code in the
      Enter Tax Code Adjustments
      screen.
    • Handwritten checks can't be processed as direct deposit checks. If you saved a vendor check as handwritten but want to process it as a direct deposit check or payment, you need to delete the handwritten check transaction, and then recreate it as an unprinted check.
    • For a vendor payment, the method selected in the vendor record determines whether the application creates a check or direct deposit payment when you enter a check transaction. To create a direct deposit allocation, the payment method needs to be
      Direct Deposit
      , and the
      Direct Deposit
      tab of the Vendors screen needs to contain valid direct deposit information with an Approved status. Otherwise the application creates a check.
