Deleting Accidentally Voided Checks

[Chris Kelleher]

When our A/P posted a manual check, she entered a high number in the "next
available check number" field (I guess). This resulted in the program
"voiding" all the checks between the number she was posting and the "next
available" - a total of 4,333! Since we really don't want to dump these
forms - I wondered if I could delete them in the system - freeing them up to
be used again.

I found the checks in the "glbank" file - all voided with a zero dollar
amount. If I delete them out of this file will that take care of it - or
are they hanging out in another file too?

This happened to us before. Symix directed us to Solution #122 which is the track you're on. It's basically a matter of doing a "for each glbank where check-num > xxxxxx and type = "C"". Display the records first in a trial run before actually deleting them programmatically.

You may also have to check lastran to reset the next available number.
