Hi there! I want to make sure I fully understand your situation. You mentioned that a client processed a check through Buildertrend, but you selected "check" and not "processing." Could you clarify a bit more on what you mean by "not processing"? For example, is the payment status not updating correctly, or is the check not reflecting as paid in your Buildertrend system? Any additional details will help me guide you better.

Message reads - processing check - could take up to a few hours? Why?

Thanks for sharing that message. The "processing check" message in Buildertrend usually means the system is handling the payment transaction in the background, which can take some time to complete. This delay of a few hours happens because:

1. Buildertrend's payment processing involves multiple steps including verification, validation, and sometimes banking clearance.
2. Automatic processes like batching transactions or security checks run on schedules, often every couple of hours.
3. Payments like checks or ACH transfers typically require more time than instant credit card payments, averaging a few hours to a couple of business days for full processing.

Specifically, Buildertrend notes that payments through ACH or e-check can take several business days, but the initial "processing" status you see generally takes a few hours as the system confirms the transaction with your bank and updates the payment status in Buildertrend2.

If the "processing check" status lasts beyond several hours or a full business day, it might be good to verify if the payment cleared with your bank or contact Buildertrend support for deeper review.

Does this explanation help clarify the reason for the wait you're seeing? If you want, I can guide you through checking your payment status or next steps.
