Hi All,
Recently one of the checkbook check number got duplicated and showing the duplicate number under the Checkbook Register, even though the Allow Duplicate check numbers options under the checkbook maintenance is untick.
Both the check numbers are originated from different modules one from Payables and other from bank transaction.
Please advise how this happened and how to rectify this.
Hello Ramanan,
Thank you for the clarification. It is designed to increment when the next check number is used, so this is definitely unusual behavior. Is this something you can recreate or make happen at will? If not, then it likely was due to something within the environment, such as a connection loss, or running out of resources, or something like that that would cause an intermittent issue. If you can make it happen, then you can find the cause, but if not, then it would be difficult to know for sure what happened.
Hope that helps.

Hi Cheryl,
Noted with thanks, but the check number in the transaction are not entered manually. it uses the next check number from the check book maintenance window.
In the above case, the payables manual payment entry was made on 24th with check number "XXX221"
so the next number should have to be updated as "XXX222". But, After 5 days when user did bank transaction, the next number number was taken as "XXX221" any reason why the next number didn't get changed.
Regards,
Ramanan
Hello Ramanan,
Historically, the 'allow duplicate check number' option only pertained to the 'Payables 'module. With this option unmarked, you would not be able to post a computer check and manual check with the same check number in Payables. However, you can still use that check number when you key the check in Bank Rec. Changes were only recently made to GP 2018 R2 to also extend the option to include Bank Rec.
So if you test this on GP 2015, you will find that you can reuse the same check number if you key the check in Bank Rec back on that version. This should be fine since they are coming from different modules. If this is not acceptable, then you would have to upgrade to get the new functionality.
Thanks
