Marge automatically creates a user back up when you click on generate a batch. If you realize your check numbers are wrong immediately, you can restore the back up file and reset the check number in the list of invoices. See Page 277 of the manual for more details on how to restore a backup!





NOTE: You can always just edit check numbers directly in the register, however, that does not update the invoice records, the batch and account details.

Since a batch has not yet been created, you can reset the check number at the beginning of the Disbursement Batch creation so that your check register matches what printed. See Page 119 of the manual for a discussion of Disbursement Settings.

All hope is not lost. You can elect to change batch fields and renumber checks one by one. It is IMPORTANT to remember to figure out if the missing check number of the sequence is at the beginning or the end. You want to start with the missing number and work in whatever direction keeps you from having two checks with the same number at any given time in the process.
