The check numbers skipped may be due to past check entries, where the check number used was out of sequence with your pre-printed checks. If your check printing procedure requires the AP clerk to enter the next printed check number, it seems likely that higher check numbers were entered at one time. The opening tab of the check register report has beginning and ending periods, which will filter out checks printed if not posted to that period range. A check number that was used but has a period to post outside of the report's period range will appear as "missing". Entering a period range from 01-1900 to period 12-9999 effectively removes the perpost filter from the report, so checks from any period will appear on the report. When running the check register for all periods, if numbers that are out of sequence with the preprinted checks were used, they will appear on the report.
