+Pay by checks
+=============
+
+Once you decide to pay a supplier bill, you can select to pay by check. You can then print all the
+payments registered by check. Finally, the bank reconciliation process will match the checks you
+sent to suppliers with actual bank statements.
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+Activate checks payment methods
+-------------------------------
+
+To activate the checks payment method, go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration -->
+Checks`, there you can activate the payment method as well as set up the :guilabel:`Check Layout`.
+Once activated the :guilabel:`Checks` setting, the feature is automatically setup for your
+:guilabel:`Outgoing Payments`.
+
+.. note::
+   Some countries require specific modules to print checks; such modules may be installed by
+   default. For instance, the :guilabel:`U.S. Checks Layout` module is required to print U.S.
+   checks.
+
+Compatible check stationery for printing checks
+===============================================
+
+United States
+-------------
+
+For the United States, Odoo supports by default the check formats of:
+
+- **Quickbooks & Quicken**: check on top, stubs in the middle and bottom;
+- **Peachtree**: check in the middle, stubs on top and bottom;
+- **ADP**: check in the bottom, and stubs on the top.
+
+Pay a supplier bill with a check
+================================
+
+Paying a supplier with a check is done in three steps:
+
+1. registering a payment
+2. printing checks in batch for all registered payments
+3. reconciling bank statements
+
+Register a payment by check
+---------------------------
+
+To register a payment, open any supplier bill from the menu :menuselection:`Purchases --> Vendor
+Bills`.
+Once the supplier bill is validated, you can register a payment. Set the :guilabel:`Payment Method`
+to :guilabel:`Checks` and validate the payment.
+
+Print checks
+------------
+
+On your :guilabel:`Accounting Dashboard` in the :guilabel:`Bank` Journal, you can see the
+number of checks registered. By clicking on :guilabel:`Checks to print` you have got the possibility
+to print the reconciled checks.
+
+To print all checks in batch, select all payments from the list view and click on :guilabel:`Print`.
