Purpose
Checks.p4 is used to reassign the check numbers in the ap, apreg and checks
files for posted checks. This procedure is used to correct the check numbers
when a error occurred during the printing process and was not detected until
after the check run was posted.
This procedure should be used with caution. When a check is deleted/voided via checks.e or checks.e2 , reversing entries are made in the apreg, ap and/or check files to reflect this transaction. Checks.p4, however, does not create these reversing transactions. Instead it changes the check numbers posted to the ap, apreg and checks files. A date stamp is posted to the new check number in the checks file to indicate that the check was created/updated via this procedure.
Frequency of Use
