The default sender address can be entered in Paperless Office Options or Company Maintenance, and it can be changed in Electronic Delivery for Forms.
Select this check box to print the remit-to vendor name and address. Verify that the remit-to information is entered correctly in Remit To Address Maintenance. Clear this check box to print the vendor name and mailing address entered in Vendor Maintenance.
Select this check box to reprint previously printed checks within the selected range. Clear this check box to print only the checks that are not yet printed. If this check box is cleared and all checks within the selected range are already printed, then no checks are printed.
Note This check box setting cannot be saved with the form code. This check box will always be cleared when you select a form code, even if the check box was selected when the form code was saved.
Select this check box to print the checks with general ledger distribution information. Clear this check box if you do not want to print the general ledger distribution information.
Note Distribution can be printed only if the Track Detailed Invoice/Payment History check box is selected in Accounts Payable Options.
Select this check box to print checks in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) format. Printing in this format aids in the use of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for automatically reading and encoding check amounts by stripping leading asterisks, removing commas in the check amount, and left justifying the amount to the preprinted dollar sign ($) on the check form. Clear this check box if you do not want to print checks in the ANSI format.
For more information about printing in ANSI format, see Print a Check in ANSI Format.
Check amounts of $1,200.50 and $1.00 print as follows:
Standard Check
ANSI Check
* * * * $1,200.50*
1200.50
* * * * * * * *1.00*
1.00
Type the message to print on the check memo line.
Type the stub message.
Note The forms are not set up to print the stub message. To print the stub message, you must add the stub message field to the form using Crystal Designer.
Type the number of detail lines to print for each check. Verify that the check form selected has sufficient space for the number of stub lines entered. If the number of lines to print exceeds the value entered in this field, you are prompted to print the Extended Stub Report. If the number of lines to print are less than or equal to the value entered in this field, but there is insufficient space on the check form, you are prompted to print the Extended Stub Report only if the Always Print Extended Stub Report check box is selected in Accounts Payable Options.
Enter an effective date to determine when electronic payments will take place, or click the Calendar button and select a date from the calendar.
This field is available only if you selected Checks at the Select Payment Type window and if either the Print Vendor Remittance Advice check box is cleared or the Allow Partial Allocation of Payment check box is selected in Accounts Payable Options.
Operand
Select an operand to limit your selection to a particular value or range of values. When selecting a value using the Lookup button or entering a value directly into the Value field (and moving out of the field), the operand automatically changes to Equal to. Likewise, when selecting a value using the Lookup button for a range or entering values directly into both Value fields, the operand automatically changes to Range.
The following operands are available:
Operand
Operand Function
All Selects all information for the Select Field. Begins with Selects only the information for the Select Field that begins with the value entered in the Value field. Ends with Selects only the information for the Select Field that ends with the value entered in the Value field. Contains Selects only the information for the Select Field that contains the value entered in the Value field. Less than Selects only the information for the Select Field that is less than, but not equal to, the value entered in the Value field. Greater than Selects only the information for the Select Field that is greater than or equal to the value entered in the Value field. Range
When Range is selected, two Value fields are used. Information is selected that is greater than or equal to the first value entered and less than or equal to the second value entered in the Value fields.
Note Entries in the "From" Value field may change to the entry made in the "To" Value field, if the "From" Value contains a lowercase letter and the "To" Value contains an uppercase letter. This occurs because lowercase letters are greater than uppercase letters. For example, if 01a is entered in the "From" Value field and 01C is entered in the "To" Value field, the "From" Value field changes to 01C.Equal to
Selects only the information for the Select Field that is equal to the value entered in the Value field.
Not Equal to
Selects only the information for the Select Field that is not equal to the value entered in the Value field.
Additional operands are available for date Select fields. The system date is used to calculate the date ranges. When one of the date operands is selected, the Value fields automatically default to the appropriate dates.
You can use commas (,) to separate multiple values; however, if your selection values already contain commas, you must use alternate separators to separate them.
Note When alternate separators are used, the value list must end with the alternate separator character.
The alternate separators include the following:
~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) = [ ] \ ; " / _ + { } | : < > ?
Note If you enter a value that contains a comma (for example, if a vendor number is
01-SAGE,WEST ), then you must enclose the value with an alternate separator (for example,%01-SAGE,WEST% ). Because the comma is a separator, if the value is not enclosed in alternate separators, the system can search for two incorrect values (for example, "01-SAGE" and "WEST", instead of "01-SAGE,WEST").If your company uses commas in item codes, use an alternate separator to select one or multiple item codes.
Value
Enter a value based on the operand entered, or click the Lookup or Calendar button to select a value from the list. Multiple values can be entered by using a comma or alternate separators to separate values.
You can enter single or multiple values as follows:
Operand
Value
All Selects all information for the Select Field. Begins with
Multiple values are separated by a comma or alternate separator. An OR condition is assumed.
Ends with
Multiple values are separated by a comma or alternate separator. An OR condition is assumed.
Contains
Multiple values are separated by a comma or alternate separator. An OR condition is assumed.
Less than Only single values are allowed. Greater than Only single values are allowed. Range Both Value fields are used to define a range. Only single values are allowed at each Value field. Equal to Multiple values are separated by a comma or alternate separator. An OR condition is assumed. Not Equal to
Multiple values are separated by a comma or alternate separator. An AND condition is assumed.
Note If you enter a value that contains a comma (for example, if a vendor number is
01-SAGE,WEST ), then you must enclose the value with an alternate separator (for example,%01-SAGE,WEST% ). Because the comma is a separator, if the value is not enclosed in alternate separators, the system can search for two incorrect values (for example, "01-SAGE" and "WEST", instead of "01-SAGE,WEST").
Note Check entry numbers are assigned to checks during Invoice Payment Selection and Check and Electronic Payment Maintenance. Invoices with the Separate Check check box cleared in the A/P Invoice Data Entry window for the same vendor all have the check entry number 001. Each invoice with the Separate Check check box selected has a check entry number assigned from 002 through 999.
