Sage 100 ERP: We changed banks how do I post checks to the correct GL account?

Written by Mike Renner | Thu, Oct 18, 2012

Question:  Mike, we own Sage 100 ERP (formerly Sage MAS90). I changed banks, and now when I print checks, it posts to the wrong GL Account. Why?

Answer: This is a deep, dark secret, unless you have run into it before. What is going on is that you changed to the correct GL account in Bank Code Maintenance, as shown below. The Division Maintenance Bank Account number is overriding what is in Bank Code Maintenance.

So to correct this you simply open up Accounts Payable>Setup>Division Maintenance and then blank out the Cash Account field as shown below and Accept.
