In NetSuite, the Check # field is automatically set to the largest existing check number increased by one by default. However, users with appropriate permissions can reset the numbering to a lower or higher number as needed. Here’s how to reset check numbering:
- Go to Lists > Accounting > Accounts, or Setup > Accounting > Chart of Accounts.
- Find and click on the bank account for which you want to reset the check numbering.
- Click on the “Edit” button next to the bank account.
- Locate the “Next Check Number” field.
- Enter the desired check number to be used for the next check written from this account.
- Click “Save” to apply the changes.
If your NetSuite account utilizes auto-generated numbering for check numbers, you can also reset the initial numbering for the check transaction type.
By following these steps, users can easily adjust and manage check numbering in NetSuite to align with their business requirements and preferences.
