Screen Overview

This second screen is used to specify the check amount and control the G/L interface.

Use the Misc. Expense Code field to indicate which G/L account should disburse the funds when the check is created. These are credit union-defined codes corresponding to G/L accounts. If there is no code set up for the transaction you are performing, if allowed by your credit union's configuration, you may use code 999 and enter a G/L number manually.

  • NOTE: The name and address of the “Pay to” for this check will be printed on the middle portion of the check stub to fit into a standard window envelope. To keep it from being obvious that a check is enclosed, be sure to fold the check so that that middle portion appears in the window.

Complete the data entry and use Enter. The system continues to display the data entries for review, and a message will appear. Use Enter again to issue the check or F8-Bypass to cancel the process. You may enter another check or use the up arrow to exit.

Pay to Name Fraud Block List

A Pay to Name fraud block list scan is run against the name entered in the Pay to line.  Take care to enter the Pay to name in a way that the scan will most effectively be run. If the Pay To Name is a match or partial match to the name in the block list, you will see a Suspect warning message.

My “pay to” name that I am running against a fraud list has a common word, for example LLC, Co., Inc., Incorporated, or Company. What should I enter in the Pay to line?
