In MIMS 4.1, Accounts Payable:
We found that there are 2 ways in MIMS to assign cheque numbers: MSO285(on-line) and MSB285(batch). We have found
that using MSO285 leaves the cheque run at the SELECT stage, but using MSB285 changes the status to ASSIGN, in which case a request for MSR283(Cheque print) fails. However after we assigned cheque numbers with MSO285, apparently we could re-print cheques?
Could you explain why we have two methods and the difference between the two? what does a status of 'ASSIGN' achieve, while at this stage one can still go back on-line and modify with MSO285 the cheque numbers in MIMS?
