My checks print with the word Duplicate on them
Description
Cause
  • Using a standard check form or customized version of the standard check form and entering in the check number before selecting the print button
  • Printing a check that has already been printed or had a check number assigned
Resolution

Don't put a check number on the entry screen (preferred)

  1. On the entry screen, leave the Check Number field blank.
  2. Click Print.
  3. Enter the check number for check in the field First check number.
  4. Click Print Preview.
  5. Verify Duplicate no longer displays on check.

When printing checks this way, the system will remember the last check printed and increment it by one the next time you print a check.

Use a customized form with the duplicate warning field removed

  1. Customize the form. See How to remove the word duplicate with a custom check or invoice
  2. Click Print.
  3. Click Select Form.
  4. Select your custom form.
  5. Click Print Preview.
  6. Verify Duplicate no longer displays on the check.
