How do I enter a Manual check to someone NOT in the Vendor file?

Question:
How do I enter a Manual check to someone NOT in the Vendor file?
 
Resolution:
If you are (have written) writing a manual check to a 1 time vendor use  Vendor 999999 (miscellaneous vendor)
You will be prompted for the name in the Manual check entry, use the Hand Disbursement options (4,5,6) on the A/P Daily Processing menu.  You will have to enter the check number range (from and to values will be the same if only one check is being written) .

You cannot use Vendor 999999 in option 14, Quick Check Processing.  You will need to create a temporary Vendor.
From the A/P Main menu screen, choose option 5 - File Maintenance
Choose option 2 on the A/P file Maintenance screen for Vendor.
Enter 'T' for Temporary vendor, the system will create the vendor # incrementing up 1 from 900000 and create the vendor.
Use this temporary vendor in quick check processing.  If you forget the new vendor number, you can prompt (F4) on the Vendor field on the A/P Voucher Invoice Entry screen.
