we are trying to deploy a customization so that we can send our bank an integrated payment file, so they can print and send our checks. To do so, we have to process the check payment batch, as an EFT. We changed the checkbook EFT specifics to use check numbers instead of EFT numbers, assuming it would assign each payment in line with the check numbers. when we built and processed the batch via the "build check batch" module, it only used the check number series for the payment number on the first document. So payment 1 was number 12345 (the correct next check number), and then payment 2 and beyond were then EFT0000123, etc. Has anyone used that "use check number" feature successfully? is it not supposed to be used for multiple payments in a batch?
I'm thinking the only other option would be to use a separate checkbook for our check payments, which may cause some difficulty with reconciliation.
