I ran payroll in QBO Advanced.  There are no check numbers. I tried to add check numbers (went to paycheck list>selected check > edit:  new screen - entered check number. Received an error message "invalid check number".    Our check number series start with 3 letters, followed bu numbers.

This was never an issue in QB Desktop. 

If RPT123, is not valid, please share what the requirements are. I can't find that anywhere.

Please note.  this is not an issue for regular checks, just payroll checks.

 

Thanks for your help

Good morning, @bobbieme.

 

Thanks for taking the time to reach out to the QuickBooks Community. I hope you're having a wonderful day so far. 

 

At this time, adding letters to paycheck numbers isn't available in QuickBooks Online. I understand how beneficial having this option would be for you and your business. With that said, I wanted to mention that you can submit this suggestion to our Product Development Team. Our Developers review each request and consider them all for future updates. You can send your request using the link I'm including below.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with. Take care!

Thanks, I'll do that.  Not sure what we'll do for a work-around until then (being optimistic here )
