customers paying multiple invoices by cheque - unique transaction ID is required ERROR

[dotinc]

Hi guys,

 

We have customers that pay multiple invoices with 1 cheque.

 

In version 5.x.x it would allow me to enter "cheque# 123" on multiple invoices in the add payment tab.

 

Now I am getting:

 

Validation Error

A unique transaction ID is required.

 

Is there a way to fix that as I really don't want the customer confused by merging invoices and then when they reference invoices 1,2,3,4 i have to troubleshoot and figure out it was merged to invoice 7 because i can only enter 1 "unique transaction ID" per customer.

 

I assume same error would happen if i typed in "cash"

 

Let me know what you guys think.

 

Cheers,

I'm having the same problem. I select Mail in Payment and enter the check number and it gives me the same error. I need to record the check numbers so that it shows up on the accounting reports. Please change back.
