Contents of the Payroll Assign Check Numbers Dialog Box

Use the fields and options to check enter payment information included in the payroll run.

Field Description
Check Number Enter the number to assign to the single payment, or the first number to use when assigning numbers to a sequence of payments.
Assign To Select which payments are to be assigned numbers:
  • Remaining Payments: Select this option if the numbers for all printed payments in the run are in sequential order, or if you have a problem with the initial printing of the payment file and you need to start with a payment in the middle of a payroll file and assign the remaining payment numbers sequentially from that number.
  • Single Payments: Select this option if you printed only one payment, perhaps due to an initial printing error.
Assignment Order If you selected Remaining Payments, select Ascending or Descending to determine whether DPS numbers the rest of the payments in the run in ascending order from lowest to highest number, or in descending order from highest to lowest.
Assign Click this option to begin the assigning of payment numbers.
