How to Delete a Payment in QuickBooks
In the course of doing business, sometimes payments are recorded incorrectly or applied to the wrong deposit. If this happens and you have already entered the payment into your QuickBooks account register, it can be fixed in just a few steps. QuickBooks will allow you to modify already completed deposits as well as payments listed as not yet deposited. With a few clicks, your account register will be up-to-date and accurate.

This didn't help at all. The check I need to delete was a bounced check that was deposited 2 weeks ago. Using these steps the only payments that show up are the ones that need to be deposited.
