The Bank Withdrawal or Bank Expense form is used to create Payments to non-Vendors and record withdrawals directly from your Bank Account. No AP Invoice, AP Credit Memo, or Vendor record will be associated with the Bank Expense. GL Accounts can be selected to separate and classify the expense amounts. Bank Expenses are one of the several ways to create printable checks using Restaurant365. Click here for more information on Printing Checks.
