Payroll records

I have archived my 2023 payroll and just entered my my 1st timecards of 2024 and my record #'s did not start at #1 they continued with the next number from 2023

ex: last record of 2023 was 772 so my first record of 2024 is 773 - This has never happened before the new year has always started at #1

Anyone know why or how I fix this?
