| | Unable to change Bank Code in Accounts Payable Check and Electronic Payment Processing after checks have already been printed in Sage 100 2020 |
| Cause | This issue can occur because checks were printed but not updated, and then the bank code was changed in Check Printing. In previous versions, changing the bank code would trigger a warning message: "Checks have been printed using bank code X. Changing the bank code requires reprinting of all previously printed checks. All checks will be set to an unprinted status. Do you want to continue printing with bank code Y? (Yes/No). In sage 100 2020, this warning message does not appear. |
