Use Miscellaneous Check (Cheque)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Bill Campbell 12

We have a client that wants to use Miscellaneous cheques to send to non-payable vendors - one time and such as well as employee expenses that they do not want to create in Payables.

They have a cheque format that is Cheque / Stub / Stub and we have had to follow the various KB's on the topic to get the format to work.

We have set the default Cheque in Payables to Stub on Top and Bottom - Graphical - made the changes needed and it works great in Payables.

When we try to print from Miscellaneous cheques we get the 'non-modified' version of the cheque.  Am I missing something?

Is there a special place to go to make that change?

    The miscellaneous check is a different form than the payables one.  The miscellanous has a "- CM" at the end of it.

    Payables would be:  Check With Stub on Top and Bottom - Graphical

    Misc Check would be: Check With Stub on Top and Bottom - Graphical - CM

    Matt, as you typed this reply I was working on the changes to the format.

    Thanks for the pointer and thanks for posting so quickly - was thinking this might be a long wait.  Well done.

    You're welcome.  I went throught he same situation not long ago with modifying the misc check.

    Once we got this figured we had to then play the grid line up game - got it and the client is very happy that this is functional.

    Thanks again

    Matt, I know we solved the first problem, but on a related note, do you know if there is a way to extend the Pay To field.  On screen you can only enter 30 characters.  The client tells me that she has clients with longer names and 30 characters is just not enough.

    I dont really want to get into the changes required in FORM changes, but, is that my only option?

    Thanks.

    I don't know of any easy way besides something like Modifier to make that change.  I do see that the field in the dabatase is set for 65 characters so I'd imagine it would be doable.  I can't say I've made any changes like that before, though.  Good luck!

    Ok, so I am not total wacked in the head.  I was looking at the DB and thought that was what I saw - I told the client she was nuts, but then tried for my self and POW - 30 was the limit.

    Thanks.

    Yeah, I manually updated the field through SQL to have over 50 and it took it fine so it seems like it's just a form restriction in GP.  I did try opening up the form through Modifier and I can see where it's restricted to 30 through the data type but I don't see a way to change the data type.  Hopefully someone else will have a solution for you in your other thread you started.
