Add a field for check # in the Business Receive Payment window

When an invoice is paid by check, I always like to add the payment method and if paid by check, the check number of the check along with the payment amount. It is not possible to do this in Quicken as there is no field to include a check # or payment method in the Receive Payment Window.

    I would like to reiterate the importance of being able to track what method is used to track payments, and if paid by check, the ability to add the check number. The lack of this ability increases the time it takes for me to process payments.

    What's that "Check Number" field in the upper left corner of "Customer Payment" form used for?

    @NotACPA The screen shot posted above is NOT from Quicken Mac; it's from some other business software. (I'm guessing it's from AccountEdge Pro, formerly MYOB, for Mac.) Quicken Mac doesn't even use the same terminology; for instance in Quicken Mac, there are not customers, there are clients. The Quicken Mac payment screen is titled "Receive Payment" and looks very different:

    And it has no place to document a payment type or check number, as is requested here.
