PM check numbering
Other than the user overriding the check number for a payables check run, is there a reason why a check number might be skipped? Thanks, M.

M, When you go to enter a Manual Payment transaction, the default Payment Method is Check...if someone is recording a wire payment, but doesn't change the Document Number or the Payment Method, then the next available check number is used by this transaction even though you have not printed a check. Similarly, when you enter a Bank Transaction, the default Type is Check and if you don't change that or the Number, this transaction will use the next available check number. You can look at either the Checkbook Register or the Bank Transactions SmartList (add a column called CM Trx Number for the check numbers) to see where/if the skipped check number has actually been used. -- Victoria Yudin Dynamics GP MVP Flexible Solutions, Inc.

victoriaVictoria, Manual Payments put records in PM30200 and PM30300, don't they? There is nothing in either table referencing the missing check number. Nor is there a record for the check number in the Bank Transactions SmartList. I've also checked the limited auditing capabilities of GP, and no one did any maintenance on the specific checkbook record in the time frame surrounding the missing check number. I remembered after I posted that the check number is stored in the checkbook master and the record could have been modified. Any other suggestions? Ta, M.

Manual payments, if they are not posted, could also be in PM10400. and if there is a 'stuck' record in payables using that check number you can see it in PM00400. I don't think there is an equivalent table for Bank Rec, though. The only other time I can think of a check number being skipped is in the following scenario: - Next available check is 1001 - User A opens the manual payment window, so the transaction grabs the next available check number (1001), bringing the next available check number to 1002 - User B goes to print a check run, system suggests check number 1002, since 1001 is 'held' by the manual payment - User B skips check 1001, just in case, and prints, 1002 and 1003, next available check number goes to 1004 - User A changes payment type to Cash and finishes entering the manual payment - Check number 1001 is never used, next available check number is 1004 (Similar scenario can happen for a Bank Transaction) Hard to tell what exactly happened in your case without looking at it, but if this happens a lot and none of the scenarios I desribed sound plausible, you might want to talk to your GP partner or GP support about it. -- Victoria Yudin Dynamics GP MVP Flexible Solutions, Inc.

Victoria, Checked PM10400 and PM00400 and the check is not there. I don't know what happened either 'cause the accounting people waited 5 days to let me know there was an issue. I'll pass on the manual payment scenario you outlined below. Maybe that will ring a bell with someone. Thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it. Thanks, M.

Wow! This is horrible from an auditing standpoint! We have the same situation - two checks are missing in a range and we can't prove to our auditors why they're not there (they don't show up in the Bank Transactions SmartList). We issue manual payments on occasion - is there any way we can convince the auditors that Victoria's scenario is what happened to cause our missing numbers? -- GP 9.0, SP1 "M. E.

BudBud, I don't think there is any way in GP to 'prove' this unless you have a SQL trace on everything going back to when this happened. But there should be one of 2 ways to prove the checks were never used: 1. If no one used the 'skipped' checks, hopefully they were saved with VOID written on them. This is typically what I see in organizations...however, I have also seen people shred the unused checks, in which case: 2. You can show that these checks were never cashed by the bank, which could be proven by the bank statements. -- Victoria Yudin Dynamics GP MVP Flexible Solutions, Inc.

I guess we'd have to use #2, because we print on blank check stock :-) Since we're also using Safe Pay, I would hope that would appease the auditors... -- GP 9.0, SP1 "Victoria [MVP]" wrote: > Bud, > > I don't think there is any way in GP to 'prove' this unless you have a SQL > trace on everything going back to when this happened.

Checking Activity Status within Rule
Hello, Within a rule, how do we determine the value of an Activity's status in a Check Condition (if statement), not in a Wait Condition? For example, we'd like to do something like: If Activity.status=completed then do this... else do that... At the moment, we can't figure out how to check the Activity's status because it seems that an Activity is not considered an Object, so we are limited to Waiting until our Activity (Task) is Completed and then kicking off the next Activity (Task), without checking the Activity status. We assume that if the Task is Canceled ...

Columns formatted As Dates Are Exported as a Number to Text
Group: I'm sure this questions has been asked, but I didn't find it when searching for date issues. I have a spreadsheet with a column formatted as Date. When I save the worksheet as a text tab-delimited file, Excel converts the date to the numeric format (i.e. 37185). Then, when I try to import the text file into Access, Access won't accept the number as a date, and rejects every record. Other than changing the Excel column to a Text format, is there any other way to tell Excel to export a date formatted column with the usual MM/DD/YYYY format instead of a numb...

Printing Credit Memos on Check Stub
I would like to print the credit memo on the check stub. The problem is when I select to have it printed, it prints, but the invoice that it was applied against is the lowered amount already. Thus the total of the check stub does not match the total of the check. Example, the original invoice was $100. There was a $15 credit memo applied against the original invoice. The net check amount is $85 (which is correct). However the stub shows the original invoice as $85, and then shows the credit memo as $(15) and the stub total is now $70. How do I fix this so that the original invoic...

SafePay and Voided Checks
We're using the SafePay module to create "issuance" files which are uploaded to the bank for fraud protection. The problem we're having is when a check is issued and then voided on the same day. When this occurs, there are two (2) entries for the same check # in the SafePay export file. As a result, when we import this through our bank utility, the file is rejected due to duplicate check numbers. The notes in the KB regarding voiding checks (as it relates to SafePay) suggests voiding the check on a different day ... or generating / uploading the issuance file with ...

Maximum number of Sheets?
Just a quick question: - How many sheets can a work book have?

I am thinking of transfering all the sheets from the other workbooks to my main Spreadsheet to speed up the Vlookup process( which can take a very long time). They will be around 100 sheets.
