I am unable to accept a check and have it then print when choosing next check number option instead of quick print option?

Well, usually I will go to manual check and payment entry select the batch/create batch if need be; then proceed to confirm bank code and then select quick print and fill in the check information from there; include GL distribution info; click on accept.  The check printing box will appear and I can print/preview/setup in this box.

When I use the next check number icon and proceed as above; as I click on accept it simply moves to the next opportunity to enter a manual check and date entry for that next check.

I think there was a time next check number would follow through and the check printing box appears so forth and so on.

What am I missing?  is there a check box somewhere that has been ticked and I need to uncheck?  OR have I never really been able to print after accepting check entry information when using this next check number option; ever?

AND if that is the case.  How do I print checks that I have created using the next check number icon?

thanks,

Kim
