Posted on by

Hi every one my company have problem printing cheque, we get this error message. (Unable to open dictionary: c:\program files/microsoft/dynamics/GP/Reports.dic).

I looked in the Great Plains folder and there is NO Reports.dic file, so I tried to to copy reports files from the server and copy to local path and then Issue fixed but now when Posting Cheque it creates different Cheque Number. Please can any out there help.

    OK, so you definately had a modified verison of the cheque at one point in time but are using the unmodified version at this time. The next cheque number comes from your checkbook. Go to Card->Finanical->Checkbook Maintenance and pull up your checkbook and look at the next cheque number.  Now you are not using something like Mekorma to print cheques are you? Is the next cheque number on the checks different than what you see on the checkbok?

    You can two things:

    1) Tools->Utilities->System->Reconcile and then choose Security Assignments Alternate/Modified Operations

    2)  Tools->Setup->System->Alternate Forms and Reports and choose the ID and then MS Dynamics GP and Reports and see if you using the default or modified verison of the check. Sounds like someone modifued the report and then stopped using it but never removed the desgination to use it so when you go to print cheques it is looking for the modified reports. Now if you can find a copy of the REPORTS.DIC that has hat cheque layout in it, that would work as well.
