Change the vendor's Payment Settings:

  1. In Accounts Payable select Setup, Vendors.
  2. Select the vendor.
  3. Select the Payment Settings tab.
  4. Unmark the box One invoice per payment. When it is marked, a separate check or payment is created for each invoice.
  5. Click Save.
  6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for any additional vendors.
  7. Click Close when finished.

Verify the Payment printing order:

Warning: Make a backup of your data before proceeding with these remaining steps as you will be prompted to upgrade the AP Master file. Refer to article 17256 "How do I use File Tools to back up data files?"

  1. In Accounts Payable select File, Company Settings, AP Settings, Orders.
  2. In the Payments, select Vendor if you want to have multiple jobs or prefixes on one check. The other selections could print multiple checks for a vendor if the invoices selected for payment for the vendor are for multiple jobs or GL prefixes.
  3. Click OK to close the Orders window.
  4. Click OK to close the AP Settings window. You will be prompted to upgrade the AP Master file. If you made your backup, you may click OK to proceed. If you did not make a backup, click Cancel on the message, then Cancel out of AP Settings. This will cancel your changes. You can make this change later after you have made a backup.
