3784465 - Incorrect Next Check Number Proposed For Check Lot Sequence

Symptom

Incorrect next check number in the check lot sequence for the specified bank account.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to  Liquidity Management work center 
  2. Navigate to the My Banks work center view.
  3. Choose the relevant bank and select Edit , Bank Accounts.
  4. Select the relevant bank account.
  5. Open the Check Lot tab.
  6. Review the check lot details and observe that the “current check” is within the defined range while the “next check” is proposed incorrectly (for example, current check -21 , next check - 100 ,  jumps to a value outside the expected sequence or range).

Cause

Outgoing checks were created using manually entered check numbers that did not align with the assigned check lot range/sequence, causing the stored “next check” value to become inconsistent.

Resolution

  1. Verify the check lot setup (first check, last check, current check ,next check) in the bank account master data and identify any manually created checks that break the expected sequence.
  2. Contact SAP support and request a backend correction to realign the check lot’s current/next check sequence, and provide explicit permission to perform the correction.
  3. Recheck the Check Lot tab to confirm that both “current check” and “next check” values are correct and increment as expected after correction.

Precaution : After the correction, create outgoing checks using the system-proposed number from the assigned check lot; do not override with manually entered numbers unless specifically instructed.
