How do I change the default Checkbook ID in Cash Receipts?

The default checkbook field is in the Setup for the Bank Reconciliation module.  In the window below, our default Checkbook ID is AGCY CKNG:

There will be security permissions to get there, but the path from the Dynamics pulldown menu is:
Tools > Setup > Financial > Bank Reconciliation?

Let us know if you have more questions.

?  Thank you!  I have had to learn GP pretty much from scratch for the past 2 1/2 years.  Everything was already set-up and being used prior to me?.  You just helped me not only change what I needed, but I found some other things that can help me out too!  Thank you again!  🙂

I’m happy the info was helpful.  I was in the same position as you about 10 years ago — taking over and learning as I went.  I’ve learned a lot from GPUG Webinars and from GPUG Forums (Fora?).

After I answered, also provided information — and let me take a shot at explaining the difference in our answers.  Our company does not use the Sales or Receivables Management modules, and therefore we enter our cash receipts directly into the “Bank Reconciliation” module.  Michael’s answer would be applicable to companies that use the Sales and RM module, which is probably more common than our situation.

Glad you found some “new stuff” — take care, and make backups!!

Leeanna, 

I believe this is setup on the Receivables Management Setup window.  On the Microsoft Dynamics GP Menu – Tools -> Setup -> Sales -> Receivables, there is a field in the bottom part of this window, where you can setup a default Checkbook ID.
