Cheque writing

From Rhaworth

To do cheque writing "properly" in the Poppytime Financial System:

• In Purchase Ledger / Accounts Maintenance set the "Days credit" field to an appropriate value for each supplier

• In Purchase Ledger / Cheque Writing run the Payments due list creating a new batch. Check the list

• If any adjustments are needed, go to Purchase Ledger / Cheque Writing / Override payments. Here you can:
  • Change the due date. You can set the date to "F" (for forward) to defer payment indefinitely
  • Change the amount to pay

• If you have used Override payments, re-run the Payments due list using the existing batch number

• Print cheques and remittance advices

Note

The due date on a transaction is set at the time of posting the batch. Changing the Days credit field in the supplier record does not affect existing transactions.
