I use an Accounts Receivable account. When I write a check to pay an invoice, my check register shows "To Accounts Receivable" on the memo line. That's helpful, but I want to record the invoice number I'm paying also.

Great question. One solution is to use the Multiple Distribution screen:
  1. Enter the transaction in the checking register normally. Do not enter any memo at this time. FN will automatically add a memo "To Accounts Receivable."
  2. Select Tools | Multiple Distributions to view the Multiple Distribution screen for the transaction.
  3. Enter your memo on line 3 of the Multiple Distribution screen.
The added memo will show up on reports but not on the check or in the Transfer Clearing Account or the Accounts Payable account. If you want the memo to show up in those accounts, go to the account and repeat the process. If you want the added memo to show on the printed check stub, see Need second memo on checks.
