Overview

If your checks already have pre-printed numbers, you can remove the system-generated check number from the printed layout. This prevents duplicate numbers from showing on the check.

Before you begin


  • You need access to the Issue Check - Disbursements module.
  • Make sure you are using pre-printed checks with check numbers.

Steps

  1. From the Main Menu, go to Issue Check - Disbursements.
  2. Click the Print button and select Change Check Layout.
  3. Hover over and click the displayed check number.
  4. While holding the mouse button, drag the number off the form (beyond the column edge).
  5. Click Save Changes at the bottom right of the window.
  6. When the warning appears, click OK to confirm.
  7. Select Test Print to confirm the check number is no longer displayed.
  8. If the number still appears in the second or third section of the form, repeat the same steps to remove it.

Outcome

The system-generated check number is removed from the printed form, leaving only the pre-printed number on your checks.

Troubleshooting

  • Number still prints - Recheck all sections of the layout and remove the number where needed.
  • Layout changes not saved - Confirm you clicked Save Changes and OK in the warning message.
  • Check looks incorrect - Use Test Print before printing real checks.
