Checks for payment, huge overflow error

Hello,
We are having an error when doing a check in checks for payment. Any check done is coming up using over 600 check #'s/pages. This error just started, we have done checks for payment in the past without error. If we do a check via the Outgoing payments, it prints correctly. But if we do it through the Checks for payment window there is a huge overflow. I have tried using different templates for printing and get the same result.
We are using SAP B1 version 2007 A sp 01 pl 08.
Thank you for any help.

Please confirm if you are using the same PLD template when using Outgoing Payment v/s the other.
This could even happen if your Print Layout is corrupted. So as Gordon is suggesting, set as DEFAULT one of the PLD which comes with SAP. Try to do the same steps and check.

Checks For Payment Printing Overflow

Using SAP BO 8.8 when printing a check from an outgoing payment with more than 5 invoices the invoices will overflow on to another page.
1. The overflow pages are printed first, so the top page in the printer is an overflow page instead of the check.
2. The overflow pages print using the same format as the check page (eg. Check, Stub, Stub)
What I want is for the first page to print the check, then the second page to print a full page of invoices in the case of overflow.
If that's not possible, at least having the first page print the check so that the check can be placed on top of the paper stack in the printer and the remaining overflow pages can print on blank paper to avoid wasting check stock.

No luck, I tried overflow on check stock, overflow on blank paper, setting the maximum lines to 0, and setting the maximum lines to 999.
It's still wanting to overflow when it runs out of room on the check page.
Setting the maximum lines to a low number like 2, and then trying to print a check with several invoices (above 10) will move the stub on to another page entirely, but then when I try to print it will only print the stub page and no check at all.

Error in viewing checks for Payment

Hi Experts,
I am facing a problem while previewing the "check for payment". I am getting the following error:-
"you can not print checks while another user is accessing this checking account [message 854-35]"
Thanks and Regards,
Pankaj Sharma.

Check any other user accessing the same document. If not restart your sap server, it can remove the buffer user who was accessing the same document before.
There was lock for check printing in bank account settings. Please check whether it is locked or not.
Administration -> setup -> Banking -> House Bank Accounts
if it is so, unlock the check printing.
Now you try u2026

New Crystal Report Layout 2008 for Checks for Payment

I just created a new Check for Payment Layout in CR2008 for SBO. When I print it from CR2008, it prints ok. The situation is when I print from SBO. A message appears (Neither the system nor the account has a printing definition. , '11-201-013874-5' [Message 65030-7]) but shows the preview ok. When I print it, it turns 90 degrees and is centered in the page.
I has a special Page size (14cmx19cm) and a dot matriz printer (Epson 300+II) Only fron SBO does it change the page orientation. What can I do ?

Hi,
2 Things in my mind now:
1, try dissociating the page in CR page setup
2, dot matrix printing support is till 8.8 (or 8.81?) is only available to like 3-4 types, check the compatibilty!
(3, file a message to SAP, i have almost the same problem with an eticket printer.. maybe if more of us complain they ramp up the importance of non a/4 printing)
Hope you don't need to redo from scratch in PLD as i had to...
Hope at least i could give you some guidance.
Regards,
D

Cancellation / Reversal of Credit memos and Check for payment

I have few cases where the credit memos and check for payment documents have been keyed with an incorrect posting date.
What should be best approach to reverse these transactions.

Hi Somchitra,
in such situations ideally you would use the cancellation document standing on the original document, alas, a credit memo has no target document.
You will need to create an invoice with exactly the same data as in the credit memo & then internally reconcile these transactions. If the credit memo was in itself generated from an invoice, you need to cancel that reconciliation first. After that you re-create the credit memo with exactly the same data, just with the correct dates.
To cancel the cheques for payment you need to cancel the payment itself with the original document date & 'Cancelled' will be put in the 'Remarks' on the cheque.
You will then need to recreate the payment with the correct dates.
If you have already confirmed the printing of the cheque, you'll need to issue a new cheque number & destroy the printed copy, if it hasn't been printed, you can select the appropriate number in the 'Cheque number confirmation' window.
As always when correcting transactions, please keep an eye on the stock transactions & make sure they are correct. Also, for auditing purposes, always enter an approriate text in the 'remarks'.
All the best,
Kerstin

Can Pay To the Order of be different from Vendor Name in Check for Payment

My client has several vendors, where payment goes to an organization with a different name. I have created Pay To addresses with the correct information, but would like to automate the process such that the Outgoing Payment, whether created manually or from Payment Wizard will fill in the Pay to the Order of field on the check with a name other than the Vendor Name.
I can manually go into Checks for Payment and enter a different Pay to the Order of name. I want to know if this can be done automatically.
Thanks

Unless you could find a logic to link those info, I don't see any ways to select Pay To by automated way.
Thanks,
Gordon

Check for Payment Service Invoices - Canada

When printing checks for Payment, using 2007A SP01 PL09, in the Canadian localisation, the stub lines print twice when printing a check for payment involving service type AP invoices. It prints the lines correctly, then prints the invoice keys again and a 0
line. Discovered my issue.

Your question is not very clear. What do you mean for your last sentence: Discovered my issue? You may share what is your solution if you discovered the solution by yourself.
Thanks,

Copying Comments from Outgoing Payments form to its checks for payment

Hi!, is there a way to pass the comments from the Outgoing Payments to the comments of the check for payment of the same outgoing payment?
We want to see in the checks for payments comments field, the same comment from the outgoing payment which the check was originated.
Thank you!

If you are talking about bringing the Outgoing Payment comments to the Check Journal Remarks field, you could do it using a formatted search. Save the following SQL and link the query to the Journal Remarks field
SELECT T0.Comments FROM [dbo].[OVPM] T0 WHERE T0.DocNum = $[OCHO.TransRef]

Print 2 copies of check for payment

Hi,
I need to print 2 copies of check (one for supplier and one for accounting) on a laser printer but SAP don't permit me.
Do you have an idea?
Thank you,
Frédéric Marchand

Bonjour Frédéric,
You can only print one copy of cheque (Checks for Payment) if you are indicating "2" copies in Document Printing. If you change the number of copies in the printer window (i.e. where you select the printer, etc), you will get 2 copies of the cheque. If you are printing off multiple cheques, you will probably need the alternate pages to be blank paper (don't think the Collate option will work since check is probably 1 page).
Another option - your Accounting dept may be okay with the Outgoing Payment report/template.

Cancel Date in Void Checks for Payment

Ver. 2005, PL11: The cancel date (and update date) is not being set when voiding a check for payment which is associated with an outgoing payment.
Likewise, the cancel date (and update date) is not being set when a check for payment is voided when canceling an outgoing payment.
When reporting on payment activity, the ocho file is not accurate without the cancel date. Any idea if this is a setting? A bug? Fixed in 2007? Ideas on a work-around?

Ad-hoc payments, such as a cash on delivery order, an emergency employee loan or some other one-time payments are created using the check for payment screen, entered against an account number, not a vendor, and the "create journal entry" box is checked.
The check is then immediately printed using the document printing. The payment wizard is invoked weekly, and it ignores these ad-hoc, paid and printed payments.
Any ad-hoc checks for payment correctly have the cancel date and update date updated when using the void check for payment screen.
Checks for payment created from the payment wizard (which are "associated" with a previously created outgoing payment) do not have the cancel date and update date updated in the check file (OCHO) when using the void check for payment screen.

Manual Check Number changes when checks for payment is printed

Hi Guyz,
Can you help me on this issue. I don't know why it overrides when i try to print the Checks for Payment. It also changes the manual check number i entered in the payment means. Is there a settings that can be set? please advise. thanks.

Hi
The main goal of manual check number (at the Outgoing Payment) is to register a check that was written manually.
For example: The person in charge of the purchases in the company goes to a supplier and write down a manul check to pay the merchandise.
When he/she return to the office informs the check number, vendor, amount to the registered in the system.
As the check in already in vendor hands you don't need to print again.
SAP Business One will change the (manual or not) check everytime you print it.
In case of you want to assign a manual number you can do it via Document Printing -> Checks For Payment.
When the screen comes up to select the documents to be printed, you can type the number in the box 'Next Check Number'.

Linking Outgoing Payment to Checks for Payment

Hello Experts,
Is there a way i can link the already processed outgoing payment (under Banking) to my Checks for payments?
I need to have the AP Invoice No. copied to the Remarks in the Checks for Payments and the journal remarks to be the same in both the documents.
Thanks.
Feroz

Feroz,
You can manually update those fields but there's no way to create a link between the two documents. You can cancel the original ones and process them again including the new outgoing payment.

Nat
