    We are adding a new Process Level and they want to bring in their check history detail for 2011. When we implemented we brought in check detail, so I'm very familiar with the PR560 csv file. This is the first new Process Level we're adding. I don't know what to tell them to use as their Check ID and Check Numbers as I'm sure that their numbers duplicate ones that we have already used. How do others bring in a new PL's check history?

      I believe you should be able to create a new bank code for them, load the payment history and then change the bank to the correct paying institute. I don't recall if you have to change the bank code on the co/PL but I assume you'll try to load a few payments into a test system first?

        Thanks Stephanie, that's a great idea!
        Yes, the bank code is assigned to the Co/PL (HR01). It is not an available field on the PR560 csv file, so Lawson reads the HR01 to get the bank code when loading the PR560 files.
        Lawson suggested using a really really high check number in a sequence we'd never use, but converting into an alternate bank code seems much cleaner and safer.
