How to Make a Cheque Payment in Law App

Contents

    Making a cheque payment in Law App follows the same process as making an EFT payment, with one key difference — you change the Fund Type to CHQ.

    What happens when you select CHQ

    Good to know: Once you’ve started your payment and changed the Fund Type to CHQ, Law App automatically assigns a cheque reference number instead of the usual EFT reference number. No other changes to your workflow are needed.

    How to set up your cheque numbering sequence

    If you need to update or correct your cheque numbering sequence, follow these steps:

    1. From the left menu, go to Admin > Transaction Sequencer
    2. To add a new line, click Add
    3. Complete the line as shown below — the same setup applies whether you’re configuring General cheque payments or Trust cheque payments, just on their own separate rows

    Transaction Sequencer screen in Admin settings with both the General payment number row and the Trust payment number row (each set to the Cheque fund form) circled, and the Save all button circled

    Use the last cheque you used, not the next one. In the “last sequence” column, enter the number of the LAST cheque you used — not the next available one.
    Already have a line set up for this? If the line already exists and you just need to correct the numbering, skip adding a new one — simply click into the field you want to change and type.
    1. Press Save
