In the Process Payments window, you can:

print employee paycheques

record a bank withdrawal for the cash pays .

Once you've completed this task, continue with 6. Print or email pay slips.

If you use customised forms that have pre-printed cheque numbers, type the first cheque in the Number of First Cheque in Printer field.
Type how many copies you want to print in the Print [...] Copies of Each Selected Cheque field.
If you want to filter the employee list or change the customised form it will be printed on, click Advanced Filters. For more information, see Customising form batches.
