Does anyone know if it is possible to format the Check Number field to accept letters in addition to numbers? We would like to try doing so for a very limited number of unique circumstances.
I don't think so--the check_no column in t_payment is configured to store only an integer. Maybe you could use the custom fields in orders (or/and contributions) to capture what you're after instead?
Hi Dan -
I would also put forth Payment Notes as a great place to record items that won't work in the Check Number field. This was one of my enhancement requests from when I was a user, and I definitely did a little happy dance when it made its appearance!

Thank you, Matthew! I decided to just place a note in the order notes field. I was just hoping for a work around. Thank you!

Thank you, Heather! I did end up just placing a note in the Payment Notes area. As long as our Finance Department understands what I did I am good to go. Thank you!! J
