Renumber Checks

To correct certain printing errors, you sometimes need to renumber checks. For example, you should renumber checks when the check numbers in the program do not match the numbers on the physical checks that printed.

You renumber computer checks from Pay invoices on the bank account record. Simply specify the original start and end numbers of the checks, then the new start number.

Note: You can renumber checks only if you have security rights established in the database view.

  1. From Pay invoices, select Actions, then select Renumber computer checks. The Renumber computer checks screen displays.

  2. Enter the Original start number and Original end number for the checks you want to renumber. The original start number and original end number must specify an unbroken series of unvoided payments. You can reuse existing numbers, but the range you enter must be contiguous.

    Note: You cannot renumber checks that have been voided or reconciled.

  3. Enter the New starting number for the check range.

  4. Select Renumber now.
