Splitting the Payment process for check printing

  We would like to split the payment process, so that the clerk goes thru the initial payment proccess up to the point where the checks are ready to print.   What is the best way to remove the printing capability from the clerk and giving that responsiblity to the Supervisor?    I have done some research and found that you can exclude functions from the responsibilities but not sure if this is the most effecient method.  I have yet to find a straight forward answer to this.  Thanks in advance to any assistance with this.
