FS685 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FS - Messages from Tax Routines / Prenumbered Checks

• Message number: 685

• Message text: Check number &1 does not originate from check lot &2

What causes this issue?

You are using the Payment Medium Workbench (PMW) to print checks. In
transaction <DS:TRAN.OBPM3>OBPM3</>, you have enhanced the format so
that check numbers are determined at event 06. This has failed due to a
conflict. In transaction FCHI, for at least one check lot, the payment
method entered requires the PMW to determine check numbers using its own
logic.

System Response

The program terminates because the check number determined, &V1&, does
not originate from the check lot specified, &V2&. No checks were
printed. However, entries have been generated in the check register.

How to fix this error?

In transaction <DS:TRAN.FCHI>FCHI</>, remove the PMW payment method for
checks from check lots.
In transaction <DS:TRAN.FCHD>FCHD</>, delete the current payment run
from the check register.
Use program <DS:REPN.RFPAYM_RESET>RFPAYM_RESET</> to reset the PMW data
for the current payment run.
Restart the check printing job for the current payment run using
transaction <DS:TRAN.FBPM>FBPM</>.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
