Check Print Order

Recently, something changed causing the checks to not print alphabetically by vendor name.  Can this be changed back?  Is there anything that I can do or change to get these to print as mentioned below? 

Previously, I would sort my outstanding invoices alphabetically by vendor name before selecting which invoices to print a check for, and this would pull over to the payment journal alphabetically and also print the checks that way.  The past three weeks, even though I sort the outstanding invoices alphabetically by vendor name before selecting the invoices to pay, they pull over to the payment journal in Posted Purchase Invoice Number order (oldest first), not alphabetically.  Even if I sort the payment journal alphabetically before printing the check, the checks still print by oldest Posted Purchase Invoice Number, not alphabetically.  Very frustrating. A fix for this would be wonderful

    Hi D Carter,

    Do you know when the change happened? Was an upgrade to a newer build or any feature turned on that you are aware of? 

    I did a quick test in my test environment that was 10.0.17

    1. payment journal to two invoices
      1. 1st line Vendor Lande with an invoice date of 5/06/2017
      2. 2nd line Acme with an invoice date of 7/30/2017
    2. When i printed generated the payments it went by alphabetic order, not oldest invoice date.

    Following this conversation as I am curious to know how the printing sequence can be defined. (As far as I know this is not possible)

    D_Carter: Are you using SSRS or Electronic Reporting for the check layout?

    The last check run that pulled alphabetically for me was 4/29/2021.  I was not aware of an update at that time where something would have changed.  However, there could have been.  All I know is that something did change between the 4/29/2021 check run and the the 5/6/2021 where they did not pull alphabetically even though I did as I had always done in the past.   And just to clarify, it is not pulling by oldest vendor invoice date, it is the oldest posted purchase invoice number  (PPINV###) that is automatically assigned when the invoice is posted.

    Hi D Carter,

    I am not aware on how to change the printing sequence order and since I have not been able to replicate, I would advise creating a case to help the investigation.
