This error indicates that the check you are trying to process has been marked as void in the system, meaning it cannot be used for payment or further processing.
  Cause:
  
  Check Voided: The most common reason for this error is that the check has been explicitly marked as void in the system. This could happen if the check was canceled or if there was an error in the payment process.

  Use a Different Check: If the check is void, you will need to use a different check that is valid for processing. Ensure that the check number you are using is correct and has not been voided.
  Reissue the Check: If the check was voided in error, you may need to reissue the check. This typically involves creating a new payment document in the system.
  Consult with Finance Team: If you are unsure why the check was voided or if you need to reverse the voiding action, consult with your finance or accounting team for further assistance.
