Currently: if you pay more then (I think 13 Vendor Invoices) it triggers a check overflow which has the effect of "burning the next X checks ( depending on the number of invoices your paying) I.e. it will void 3 checks if you are paying 40 invoices.
Suggestion: Create option to print Overflow report after check run
Comments
LARGE GP customer moving to BC and I agree with the others. We cannot waste checks like this. They regularly have 50-100 invoices on one check and from an audit standpoint, it's a huge problem to have that many voids. Please add an overflow feature so only one check is used and then a remittance can be printed.

In all my prior companies as both a user and a consultant, this was always a customized feature the developers made. It is crucial to businesses to be allowed to create a remittance page at the end of cheque printing for any overflow of invoices. The cost of wasting cheque stock to print additional invoices can be very high and small companies just cannot afford this waste. This should be a OOB feature in Business Central, honestly it should have been in NAV years ago. This also will cause major issues for clients going from GP to BC where this functionality was already included in the base product.

This represents a critical functionality gap for organizations migrating from Dynamics GP to Business Central. Dynamics GP handled overflow checks effectively, and many clients have come to rely on this capability. Without it, the transition to Business Central introduces friction, undermining user confidence and making it harder to justify the move from GP. It would be very helpful to prioritize this in the future updates to Business Central to better support mid-sized organizations with complex AP processing requirements.

This is a critical gap for organizations migrating from GP to BC. Overflow check handling is not just a convenience—it’s essential for clients who process large payment runs. Without this feature, businesses waste check stock, incur additional costs, and face operational inefficiencies. GP handled this well, and its absence in BC creates friction for adoption. Adding this functionality will ensure smoother migrations, maintain feature parity, and improve client confidence in Business Central.

With end of life for Dynamics SL and now Dynamics GP, this has got to be added in 2025. It's been over 5 years and this an important feature especially for GP customers that are now looking at Business Central.

On premise Dynamics handles this better that D365 BC.We really need a remittance format of a check that will give the option to print a remittance advice report (to show documents being paid) and not have to burn through check numbers.

Any updates from Microsoft on this? We are currently implementing BC to go live in 2 weeks and extremely disappointed that our only option for this is an expensive customization from developers. This should be standard functionality.

There should be a way to receive a prompt to insert a 2nd or additional page vs voiding checks. The method for handling this in GP was far better than what is being done in BC. This is a significant disappointment in the BC system. Our client would not recommend BC to other companies because of this issue. They indicated that they would not have opted for BC if they knew BC did this. We also had a developer look at making changes to this, and the development effort should not be at the client's expense. Please fix this!!

This situation is a nightmare and should be a priority. It leads to an extraordinary amount of wasted time when is staff doing a simple check run. We upgraded to this program, and it lacks so many of the basic features of QuickBooks that is an 'inferior' accounting system. Our experience has been very disappointing. The bank/credit card uploads feature is not even comparable, it is missing the rules option which allows transactions to be allocated using key words and amounts, instead offers map to text which requires the entire description to match which my opinion is absolutely useless, and we continuously get duplicate transactions uploaded, or it just skips entire days. The time it takes my staff to complete these once simple task takes has doubled and, in some instances, tripled in time. I could go on, but I am hoping you are aware of these issues and the new releases will be addressing these issues. It seems to over complicate the everyday bookkeeping tasks.

it is incredible that BC lacks such basic functionality. In North America our customers expect this functionality.
