Definition

Select this indicator if you do not want the check numbers to be used sequentially, but in an order decided externally .

Note

Check lots which are marked as non-sequential cannot be used in automatic payment transactions or in online check printing. It is therefore only worthwhile to use these checks if the issuer writes the checks without using the SAP system (each lot in the order of his choice), and then defines the relevant information in the SAP system at a later date.
Checks from non-sequential check lots can only be archived once all the checks from that lot have been issued and are able to be archived.
