CHECK NUMBER FORMAT WARNING

Starting a check number with "CM" or using the word "CRED/DIS" tells the entrée system and the reporting system that the payment is a Cred/Disc transaction.

 

•For non-Cred/Disc transactions you can use one of these options:

▪Start the check number with "_CM" or ".CM".

▪Do NOT use "CMxxxx".

 

Enter a unique check or reference number for the customer's payment in this field.

 

•Cash sales may be recorded using a check number of CASH followed by the payment date. CASH071718 is an example for a payment made July 17, 2018.

 

•Should the payment need to be canceled later, the check number will be required to identify the receipt.

 

•If a duplicate check number is detected, a warning will be shown to alert the user to the duplicate entry. You will be given the option to change the check number.

 

When a receipt is canceled ALL transactions with the reference number specified will be reversed. This makes it imperative that each receipt has a unique check number.
