How can I correct the value of a cashed cheque?
Issue: I have used the Bank & Cash Menu/Draw Cheque for Cash to draw a cheque for cash and the amount was entered incorrectly, how do I alter the cheque?
Solution: If the amount was too low, draw another cheque; if the amount was too high, from the School Fund Manager main menu, use the options:
- Bank & Cash Menu
- Pay Receipts into Bank
To pay the excess back into the bank
Method: As you are unable to cancel the ‘draw cheque for cash’ transaction proceed as follows. From the Fund Manager menus, use the options:
- Bank & Cash Menu > Pay Receipts into Bank
- Make up a Paying in Slip to return the cash funds back to the bank
- Return to Bank and Cash Menu/Draw cheque for cash and enter the correct amount
Note: When making these amending entries use cheque / paying-in slip numbers outside your current range e.g. 00001 if possible - try not to make it a larger number than the one you are using currently.
