A check in most accounting is considered the same as cash and therefore it is treated the same.

A debit to the cash account will be made to note payment of the account and a credit to the appropriate account payable account to bring the AP down to a zero balance.

The check will then be deposited with the normal bank transactions and recorded as such in the bank statements for the company.

When a note is received from a customer on an account it is recorded by debiting account receviable and crediting notes receivable?

When a note is received from a customer, it signifies a formal agreement for payment, typically with interest. The accounting entry involves debiting Accounts Receivable to decrease it, as the amount owed by the customer is now represented by the note. Simultaneously, Notes Receivable is credited to recognize the new asset created by the received note. This reflects the transfer from a more general account (Accounts Receivable) to a more specific one (Notes Receivable).
