I am using Sage Cloud Accounting online.  When I delete one of the old cheques from the bank activity list it reduces the current balance of my cheques on hand account.

You don't want to delete those cheques, from the list select one cheque at a time, then click "Issue Manually" you can either enter cheque number or leave blank. This will remove from pending to print to All Cheques section

Thank you for your reply but I am trying to remove cheques on hand that we have received but that have already been deposited into the bank.  I don't need to delete cheques that we have written to vendors.
