Accounts Payable Check Printing

Hello,

We noticed that two vendors have a posted check with the same check number, different amounts, and different check dates.

Check 4340 for  2,313.03 shows under Vendor A with a Check Date of 06/23/2022

Check 4340 for 2,120.14 shows under Vendor B with a Check Date of 06/20/2022.  However, the Printed Check # for Vendor B is 4469.

Questions:

Why would Sage reuse the same check number for two different vendors?

Why would Sage record one check number and print a completely different one?

Thank you for your help,

Brian

    The user printing checks has control over the check numbering, and nothing is final until posting.  Some users (with experience in other software) think printing is the final step, leading to errors like you describe.  It could be the printed check 4469 was never posted.  Look at Paperless (check registers...) for clues of what happened.
