Computer check payments refer to checks generated within the AccountMate Enterprise system and printed on designated computer check stock. The Process AP Payment function facilitates the printing of these checks to vendors, making it particularly beneficial when dealing with large volumes of payments. The AccountMate Enterprise system incorporates automation and control mechanisms to streamline this process. Using this function, you can print checks for applied invoices across all or a specified range of pay class codes and vendor numbers.

 

 

Pre-requisites in printing computer checks:  

 

•Authorize payment to all invoices that you want to pay using the Authorize Payment function.

 

•Set up preferred AP check parameters in the Bank Account Maintenance function window. Using that function, you can define the check layout, MICR Line, and fractional routing number. In the AP Module Setup function, indicate how the check data will be transferred to General Ledger, whether it will be in detail or summary.  

 

•Verify that the vendor status is set to Active.

 

•The Hold Print Check Setting is NOT turned on in Vendor Maintenance.

 

•Verify that the vendor's authorized payment will not exceed the maximum allowable check amount set up in either the Vendor Maintenance or Bank Account Maintenance functions.
