Hello,
I have a duplicate payroll check number for an employee. I think the cause was because the reprinting functionality was used last time and it did not update the check numbers from the checkbook.
I have two checks with the same check number so it is not showing up in the void check selection. I suppose I can do a manual payment and reference the check number.
I would prefer to go in the backend(UPR30300,UPR30100,CM20200,CM20100) and change the duplicate check number to a number that hasn't been used yet and possibly have it show up in the void check selection to void. Has anyone tried that and/or are there any issues that could arise from that?
TIA,
Jae

Oh gotcha. Thank you for your responses. I do appreciate it. =)
The check number posts up to the gl as the originating document. It is also tied to thw drill back. Don't overthink this thing, all I have done in the past is to change the number of the one I wanted to keep, void the duplicate, and then change the number back.
Kind regards

Thank you Leslie for your quick response.
I'm not sure the GL and posting journal reprint files need any changing. Are those tables related by the checknumber?
Oh, another thing,
Make sure the duplicate does in fact exist in all of the tables, you don't want to change anything if the duplicate didn't make it to the GL. Don't forget about the GL and the posting journal reprint files if you care about those.

Hi Jae,
I have tried it and it works. Another thing I've done is modify the number of the check that's staying, void the duplicate, and then change the one that is staying back to the original. I can't remember why I did it that way, but it worked.
As always, MAKE A BACKUP before you do it.
Kind regards,
Leslie
