How to "move" a payment from one Purchase Order to another

The process can be followed if the District cut a check to a vendor and either the vendor cashed the check or the district can not issue a replacement check to the vendor and the District realized the check was recorded against the wrong purchase order.  This is a two-step manual process in SchoolFi.  




Step #1 - Void the payment that was made to the incorrect purchase order.  Instructions on how to void a budget check can be found here



Step #2 - Create a payment record against the correct purchase order.  When the payment record is created, you MUST check off the "No check payment" button.  In addition, we recommend you enter the original check number in the Note field.   This will help the district identify the transaction that was related to the respective check number.
