Refer to Template design for additional information.
You cannot have different settings for the Highest start column across page and Format is 6.1 compatible preferences against Check formats, Remittance formats and EFT formats. There is only one field for each of these options, so changing them on one Preference screen changes them on all the other Preference screens.

You can print checks and remittance on separate printers providing:
When using SRS Document printing to generate combined checks and remittances, the following must be defined in the Remittance Preferences:
Number of lines on a remittance
First invoice line starts on row
Last invoice line ends on row
The values entered against the First invoice line starts on row and Last invoice line ends on row determine the number of invoice detail lines on the document. Note that the system does not use these numbers to identify where the first invoice line prints. The only use of these numbers is to determine the number of invoice lines to print.
This, in turn, determines when a new check number is generated. If these options are not correctly defined, the check numbering may not be correct.
In addition, the number of detail lines defined in the Remittance preferences must correspond to the number of detail lines defined on the SRS document template for the template and the check numbering to work correctly.
If the option Both remittance & check is selected, but you select to print Remittances only in the AP Check and Remittance Print program, then the First invoice line starts on row and Last invoice line ends on row options have no effect on the number of invoice lines printed on the remittance. You must customize the SRS document template to achieve the correct number of lines.
You must define a check format before you can print checks using the Payment Cycle Maintenance program. This is regardless of whether you selected to print combined or separate checks and remittances (Accounts Payable Setup).
