Note: Continuous printing is available only for On-Premise.
Any batches that contain cheques can be printed in one operation using the C/B Transactions|Cheque/Receipt/Deposit/Forms function in Cashbook.
When entering these cheques into a batch ensure that you leave the reference number blank.
Cashbook will let you choose the bank location to use and then insert the generated cheque numbers in the blank field.
Cheques can be printed on their own or with an advice attached either above or below the cheque.
The “next cheque number” which is stored with the bank locations, is displayed, but can be changed before you perform a cheque run.
To provide as much flexibility as possible, you can override the next cheque number at any point before starting the live cheque run.
The Cheque Options, which were set up when creating the bank are displayed, these can be edited if required.
You can edit any cell of your location form by clicking on the cell and entering or selecting information.
If you select to print auto cheques, the program increments the next cheque number for that particular location.
Void and alignment cheques are automatically posted to the Cashbook.
Every time a cheque is printed, a cheque number is used.
To ensure that each cheque number is accounted for, and because you might require an alignment, the void cheque must be posted to the Cashbook together with the properly printed cheques.
This also applies to cheque and remittance advices where the remittance advice is more than one page long.
This would cause the first cheque form attached to the remittance advice to be void.
It is important to state the correct number of detail lines for advices as Cashbook calculates how many void cheques were printed using this number.
If a cheque run is interrupted i.e. the printer is switched off, the last correct cheque number can be indicated to Cashbook.
All cheques until the last correct cheque will be posted to the Cashbook.
All rejected cheque numbers will also be posted to the Cashbook, but with zero amounts.
The unused cheque entries in the batch will be written away to an error batch (unused cheques) and can be printed at another time.
