Check numbering

Glad to see you in the Community, 1313smh.

Yes, there’s a way to enter the ACH without manually typing it to all lines in the Check No. column. You can use Ctrl + C to copy the information in the first line and then Ctrl + V to paste it. Let me walk you through the step by step process:

1. On the Pay Bills page, mark the boxes for the entries you’re trying to pay.
2. In the Method section, click the drop-down and choose the appropriate payment mode.
3. Then, mark the radio button for the Assign check number and hit the Pay Selected Bills button.
4. Go to the Check No. field and type ACH in the first line.
5. Next, highlight ACH and press Ctrl + C on your keyboard to copy the information.
6. Then, press Ctrl + V on your keyboard to paste ACH into each line.
7. Once done, click OK.

When I tell checks and bill payments to print later, then I go to print and select the starting check number, it's giving me an error because our check numbers are alpha-numeric and the warning is telling me to choose only numeric.

Is there a setting I need to fix that I can't locate?

Let's resolve the prompt you're having with printing your bill payment checks, @JRasco1.

For the check number, you must enter a numeric value. Adding an alpha-numeric check number while printing will prevent the check from being printed.
