Assign Check Numbers to a Group of Sequential Checks

If the check numbers for all checks are in sequential order, you can assign the check numbers to a series of checks at one time.

You can also use the sequential assignment method if you have a problem with the initial printing of the check file and you need to reprint some of the checks midway through the payroll file. In this case, you need to assign the remaining check numbers sequentially, beginning with the number of the check where the printing problem occurred.

Prerequisite: You must print checks before you assign check numbers.

To assign check numbers sequentially, complete the following steps:

1. Display the Payment Printing and Numbering form.
2. Click Assign Numbers on the toolbar.
3. On the Payroll Assign Payment Numbers dialog box, set the Assign to field to Remaining Payments.
4. In the Assignment Order field, select Ascending or Descending to determine whether to number checks in ascending order from lowest to highest number, or in descending order from highest to lowest.
5. In the Check Number field, enter the beginning check number for the checks.
6. Click Assign.

   Vision displays a prompt that describes the check numbering procedure and asks you to confirm.

7. Click Yes.
