Why am I getting the message 'This bank is locked'' when printing AP checks?

Question:

Why am I getting the message 'This bank is locked''  when printing AP checks?

Resolution:

Possible causes for receiving this message are:

    1) Another User is in the process of running AP checks from that bank and corp.

    2) The bank is locked due to an interrupted check run.

To release the lock:

Take option 8-Supervisor Functions from the Accounts Payable main menu.

Then take option 16-Release Bank Locks. Key in the corporation# and press ENTER.  You will see a list of banks used in that corporation.  Key a "4" next to the bank you need to release and press F20 to accept.
