How to remove duplicate cheque

Method I: I intentionally posted duplicate cheque numbers

Note: this method only works if you had in the past intentionally posted the same cheque number to save up on cheques for multiple transactions. You could in the past lookup these duplicate cheque numbers but not now.

1. Open the cheque you can lookup.
2. Adjust the cheque.
3. Add a suffix at the end of your cheque to make it unique. (Example, from "Aug16" to "Aug16-1").
4. Select Post.
5. Repeat step 1 to 4 with a different suffix for each cheque you can lookup as the next lookup will make available a different cheque with the same cheque number.
6. If this method doesn't work, then proceed to Method II.

Method II: I did not intentionally post duplicate cheque numbers

Payment cheque workarounds:
