Check printing in US and Canada

Description

A check format has been created specifically for North American banks supporting three check formats. Check-stub-stub, stub-check-sub or check-stub format as well as MICR printing can be defined by Bank.

Setup

Payment entry types

The check formats available within payment entry, are driven by the Report code assigned to the payment transaction under Setup > A/P-A/R accounting > Payment transactions. To enable the NA-CHECKS, select the Report action on the Report field located in the Printing block of the Steps section.

Then select or create a report using CHE in the Processing field:

Additions have been made to the Bank accounts function in the form of a Checks section, allowing the user to set the check Format, Next check number, MICR and Bank transit/account number.

Processing the check formats

When a payment is processed using a Payment entry transaction that has the CHE report code assigned, the check formats NA-CHECKS and NA-CHKOVR are available in the selection list.
