Check Reprinting: General Information

In some cases, you need to correct a printed check and reprint it with the same number or with a new number.

Learning Objectives

In this chapter, you will learn how to do the following:

  • Correct a check by removing a bill from it
  • Reprint the check with a new number

Applicable Scenarios

You usually reprint checks in the following cases:

  • You reprint a check with the same number if you have discovered that the check contains incorrect details or there were no check blanks in the printer.
  • You reprint a check with a new number if the blank with the old number has been spoiled.

Reprinting of AP Checks

To be able to print a check again, you first need to change the Printed status for this check on the Release Payments (AP505200) form. You can reprint a check by using one of the following numbers:
  • The same check number:

    To reprint a check with the same check number, you select the Reprint command in the Action box. When you invoke processing, for the checks included in processing, the system changes the check status from Printed to Pending Print and allows you to print the check again with the same number.

  • A new check number:

    To reprint a check with a new check number, you select the Reprint with New Number command in the Action box. When you invoke processing, for the checks included in processing, the system changes the check status from Printed to Pending Print and voids the payment number so that you can print the check with a new number.
