RENUMBER PAYROLL CHECKS

DESCRIPTION:  The Renumber Payroll Checks function is used to renumber your payroll checks due to wrong numbers, or perhaps a jam in your printer.

Renumbering checks causes the original record to have its check number changed. For each record changed, a new record is added to the Payroll Journal with the same information as the old record, except on the new record, the amount is set to zero and the description is filled in with information telling the user what the check number used to be.

==============================================================

To run the Renumber Payroll Checks Program, click on the PAYROLL button,  then click on the RRENUMBER PAYROLL CHECKS button.

 

The following screen will appear:

 

TO RUN THE RENUMBER PAYROLL CHECKS PROGRAM:

 

1. Enter the month of the checks you wish to renumber, or click on the calendar button to Select the date. 

(Ex:  Checks dated 3-13-18, enter 3-1-18)

 

2. Tab to the Select P/R Date to Renumber section or click in the area with your mouse.  This will display all the available payroll check dates and the starting/ending check numbers issued.

 

 

 

 3. Click on the appropriate check range.  It should be highlighted when chosen.

 

 4. Enter the low and high check numbers that you wish to renumber. 

 

NOTE:  If you are renumbering a range of checks, they must be from the SAME payroll period and they MUST be consecutive check numbers.

 

If you wish to renumber MULTIPLE non-consecutive checks, you will need to run the Renumber Payroll Checks program as many times as you have checks to be renumbered.  (Example:  Renumber checks 1001-1004, 1007-1010, 1013-1015 would require renumbering 3 times.)

 

If you wish to renumber a SINGLE check, enter the same check number in the Starting and Ending check number fields.

 

 

5. Enter the New Starting Check Number

This is the FIRST number in a range of checks.  (Example:  If you renumber checks 1 to 6 TO 17 to 67 then you would enter 68 as the first new check in the range.  The rest will follow accordingly.)

 

6. When you have entered all the correct numbers, click on the Renumber the Checks button Or click CANCEL to cancel all of your transactions.

 

7. A box will then open telling you how many payroll checks are about to be renumbered and what the starting check number to change is.  If the information is correct, click the OK button to continue; otherwise, click CANCEL to return to the Renumber Payroll Checks dialog screen to either change the information or exit the program.

 

 

8. After clicking OK, you will receive the following confirmation screen.
