Central Bank Account for multiple business units

Hello,

We use a central bank account for multiple business units and are trying to figure out the best way to use the Next Number feature on checks from JDE to avoid having duplication between the business units. The system defaults to the last number used but ONLY by a specific business unit so we have to manually track these to avoid duplication. (For example check #5 cut on business unit ABC would not default to check #6 if cutting check from CDE. It would remain the next number cut from CDE which could also be #5).

Is there a check numbering system we could use that would allow us to use the next number feature without having duplication between business units? How do other companies handle cutting checks from one central account across business units?
