When submitting check payments, it is crucial that the Vendor's name is accurate. Our plugin typically uses the default Vendor Record to generate the beneficiary's name on the issued check, which can lead to inaccuracies.

To address this, our plugin supports NetSuite's built-in **Print on Check As **field. This feature allows you to override the default Vendor name and specify exactly what you want printed on the check.

Since this field is hidden by default in NetSuite, you will need an administrator's assistance to set it up.

## FAQs

:::ExpandableHeading
**Why can't I see Customize Form on the Vendor Record or the Print on Check As field on the customization page?**

You'll need to have your NetSuite administrator add this field to the default Vendor form, as you lack the permissions to do it yourself.
:::

:::ExpandableHeading
**What impact does this field have on non-paper payment methods, such as ACH or Wires?**

The name you enter in this field will be transmitted to the bank and the payment network for that particular payment. The recipient may see this name, or it may be used to process and fulfill the payment.
:::

:::ExpandableHeading
**How can I test this functionality?**

Once set up, this feature will work immediately for any vendor. To test it, we recommend doing so in a Sandbox environment.

First, enable the feature using the steps mentioned above. Next, submit a payment for the updated vendor. Finally, contact our Support team via email, providing the payment information (e.g., reference numbers of the bill payments) and referencing this page for context.
