Accounts Payable occasionally skips a series of check numbers during a check run (15 of them this last time!). The skipped check numbers do not show up anywhere in the system. I found a similar question in this forum, and the response was: "You can always change the next check number by going to Cards - Financial - Checkbooks and updating the Next Check Number for the appropriate checkbook." However, I am unable to find a selection named "Cards" in MD. Has anyone else had this problem?

Carolyn is correct to make sure if those checks are in the Check Register. If not, you can change the next check number in the Check report/screen after selecting a batch.
One of my clients has this problem regardless of the above when using the View Selections in the Checkh Report/screen interface to remove some checks then printing it at a later time. This customer also has open check batches waiting for approval as well. In this case, use the Edit/Select Documents for Payment to either make changes or copy the reference numbers to excel then delete the reference numbers to delete this batch. Paste the reference numbers to create a new batch and process them.
"Cards" is a GP term. That's why you can't find it.
Is it possible that you have more than 12 documents on a check when this occurs?
Hi Jean,
The post you read must have been for a product other than Microsoft Dynamics SL. The only place to change the next check number is in the Checks report/screen.
When the check numbers are skipped, is the check numbering off in SL? For instance, does the system say check number xxxxxxx printed for vendor A but in reality that check number printed for Vendor B? Or is everything ok except 15 checks were skipped.
Could it be that those checks might have been used as manual (hand) checks? You could look for those checks in the Check Register. Maybe they were used sometime in the past and would show in the Check Register if you ran it for several period ranges in the past.
Let me know what you find.
