Resetting Check Numbers

By default, NetSuite sets the Check # field to the largest existing check number increased by one. If you have appropriate permission, you can reset numbering at a lower or higher number than the current number.

To reset check numbering:

  1. Go to Lists > Accounting > Accounts, or Setup > Accounting > Chart of Accounts.

  2. In the list of accounts, click Edit next to the bank account for which you want to reset check numbering.

  3. In the Next Check Number field, enter the check number to use for the next check written from this account.

  4. Click Save.

If your NetSuite account uses auto-generated numbering for check numbers, you can reset the initial numbering for the check transaction type. For information about auto-generated numbers, see Set Auto-Generated Numbers.
