Track Check Pay payment

Quicken gives you the ability to track your check payments in 2 locations: Bills & Income and the Register.

Track payment in Bills & Income

• Switch to the Bills & Income blue tab to track payment status.
• Once you select the link under the Last Payment Status column, you see a screen that describes the current status of the payment. The following status levels are the most common:
  • Processing 
  • In Transit
  • Estimated Delivery: YYYY-DD-MM (The date your check is expected to arrive)
  • Returned to sender
  • Cancelled

You can only cancel a check payment while the check status is still listed as Processing. Once the check has been printed and delivered to the USPS, Quicken cannot be used to cancel the payment.

Track payment in the register

• Switch to the register of your payment account.
• The transaction check status icon indicates the various payment stages:
  1. Spinner indicates that the payment is being processed.
  2. Green paper airplane indicates that USPS has the check and the payment is in transit.
  3. Green check mark indicates that USPS has stated the check should be delivered shortly.
  4. Yellow exclamation indicates that the payment failed.
  5. Gray circle and line indicates that the payment has been cancelled.
• A status description will also appear in the check field.
