Changing the Check Sequence Number When Recording Check Payments in CustomBooks™

Changing the Check Sequence Number When Recording Check Payments

When recording check payments through Bill Payments or Payments, CustomBooks™ automatically populates the check number based on the last one used. If necessary, you can change this sequence to ensure the next check number is correct.

To Set the Next Check Number:

1. Open the Bank Account Details by navigating to Accounting > Chart of Accounts or by clicking the Open Details button within the Bank Account drop-down on a Payment/Bill Payment or Cloud Banking.
   
   
   
   
2. In the Bank Account Details window, enter the last used check number in the Last Check Number field. Alternatively, click the Find Last button to have the system automatically retrieve it.
   
   
   

The next time you create a payment or bill payment, CustomBooks™ will increment the number you entered by one. For example, if you enter 999, the next check recorded will be 1000.
