| | Multiple checks printed for one vendor or one invoice in Accounts Payable (MICR settings not correct) |
| Cause |
In the AP Settings the Print using MICR encoding option and the Operator specifies for entire check run option are both selected.
|
| Resolution |
Either unmark Print using MICR encoding or change the Bank account use method to System automatically assigns per distribution:
Option 1: Keep the Operator specifies for entire check run setting and remove the Print using MICR encoding setting
Note: The Print using MICR encoding setting allows for multiple banks to be included in a single check run and does not affect the actual MICR printing.
- In Accounts Payable, from the File, select Company Settings, AP Settings.
- Click Payment Settings.
- Unmark Print using MICR encoding.
- Click OK to exit Payment Settings.
- Click OK to exit AP Settings.
Option 2: Change the Bank account use method to System automatically assigns per distribution
- In Accounts Payable, from the File, select Company Settings, AP Settings.
- Click Payment Settings.
- In the Bank account use method section, select System automatically assigns per distribution.
- Enter the Default bank account.
- Click OK to exit Payment Settings.
- Click OK to exit AP Settings.
- If desired, void the checks that were issued, add the bank account to the invoice distributions (see article DocLink: How do I change the assigned bank account on an Accounts Payable invoice distribution?), then print a new check.
Notes:
- This change will not take effect retroactively. The Bank will need to be added to each invoice that was created before the Payment Settings change. See article DocLink: How do I change the assigned bank account on an Accounts Payable invoice distribution?
- Bank accounts are assigned at the distribution level by first looking at the Job then the GL Prefix on the distribution. If there is a Job on the distribution, it will look for a bank in Job Cost, Setup, Jobs, AP and GL tab. If that is blank, the system will then look at General Ledger, Setup, Prefix/Base, the specific Prefix on the distribution. If that is blank as well, then it will look to the Default Bank in AP Settings, Payment Settings.
