Deltek check in middle format from Checkomatic is a pre-formatted business check stock specifically designed for Deltek accounting software. The check sits in the center of a standard 8.5" x 11" sheet with one perforated stub above and one below. Your company name, bank name, routing number, and account number come pre-printed on every sheet before the order ships. Deltek outputs the payee, amount, date, and check number to the center check fields at print time. The MICR line is already on the paper in magnetic ink. No MICR toner required. Starting from $19.79.
Why Deltek Uses the Check-in-Middle Format and How to Confirm Your Configuration
Deltek's accounts payable check printing function outputs check data to the center position of the page by default in many Deltek configurations. This is different from the check-on-top layout used by QuickBooks and many other mainstream platforms. When someone migrating from a QuickBooks check ordering source loads top-format stock into a Deltek print run, nothing aligns. The check fields print to the wrong section of the page on every sheet.
Before ordering, confirm your Deltek check print position. In Deltek, navigate to the check printing module and look at the check format settings. If the format shows a center or middle-positioned check field layout, this is the correct stock. If it shows a top or bottom position, browse the corresponding formats. The format has to match the software's output position exactly.
Checkomatic custom-formats every check order to align with your accounting software's specific template at no extra charge. If your Deltek version uses a non-standard template, contact Checkomatic before ordering and we'll confirm the correct alignment before the stock ships.
Checks in Middle Format: How the Two-Stub Layout Works for Deltek AP
The middle-position check format gives you one stub above the check and one below. Both stubs record the same payment transaction when Deltek prints the sheet. The upper stub is typically retained internally before the check is released. The lower stub goes with the payment as a remittance record for the payee, or stays in your files as the AP log depending on your internal workflow.
For government contractors, architecture and engineering firms, and professional services businesses that run accounts payable through Deltek Costpoint, Vision, or GCS Premier, the middle format is the standard. The MICR line at the base of each check, which carries your routing and account numbers for bank clearing, is pre-encoded in magnetic ink before the stock ships. Your standard laser printer handles only the variable payment data Deltek generates at print time.
