AP MICR implementation and the next number

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by ProAcct300 50

We are on version 7.0 FP1 and have multiple companies with multiple bank accounts.  From the initial implementation, Wires were entered into Dynamics SL via Hand Check.  And the numbering sequence was greater than our AP Checks.  We are in the process of implementing MICR and AP EFT so our AP clerk doesn't have pre-printed check to know what the next AP check number should be. 

Now running an AP check run, our next number comes in as the highest number that being a Hand Check number. 

All suggestions are welcomed and appreciated.

    Hi Toni,

    SL has ignored HC's in the calculation of the Next Check Number for system checks for quite some time.  However, when printing the system checks, it will skip the check number that was used for a HC, so no duplicates will be created.

    Carolyn, are you sure you tested the version he said?  This would be a new feature, if it really ignores hand checks.  Also an unfortunate one, as it will cause duplicate check numbers on the same account.  One of the good features of Solomon is that it treats manual checks as if they were paper checks from the same stack as the computer ones (which they often were in the old days of dot-matrix checks).

    Unfortunately, there is no simple solution that I know of.  

    The best thing is to change the GL account number, and start over, using LOW numbers for the manual checks, and higher ones for the EFT/MICR checks.

    Solomon has come late to the EFT table, and this is a common problem.

    The Next Check Number appearing in the Checks report is not influenced by checks entered via the Manual Check Entry screen.  To be sure, I tested this by creating a check batch and going to Checks to bring up the batch.  The next check number is 000316.  I closed out of the Checks report and went to Manual Check Entry and created a manual check on the same checking account with number 006000.  I released the Manual Check batch.  Then I reopened the Checks report, brought up my check batch, and the Next Check Number is still 000316.

    Are you positive that the check with the number that is appearing in the Checks report is a hand check?  Did  you examine the record in APdoc to be sure that the Doctype is HC?  Could it be  a system check that was entered with a wrong check number?
