Enter Post-Dated Cheques (AR32)

The Enter Post-Dated Checks (AR32) program is used to enter details of post-dated Customer Checks.

  • As post-date Checks are deposited (i.e. processed through the Cash Receipts Posting programs AR30/31), they are automatically cleared from the outstanding post-dated Checks master file. This occurs when the identical Customer Check number combination is entered in both Enter Post-Dated Checks (AR32) and in Post Cash Receipts and Adjustments (AR30).

  • Post-dated Checks can be optionally listed on the Print Overdue Analysis Report (AR83) and Print Aging Report (AR84) and can be viewed in Customer Inquiries (SU45/C5-Post Date Checks). This is useful information for collection purposes.

  • When Print Cash Receipts/Adjustments (AR31) Audit Trail report is accepted, any processed post-dated Checks are cleared from the Post-Dated Check Master file.

The following list defines every field in AR32:

  • In the Customer Info section:

    • Code - enter or select from the query the Customer code for which the post-dated Check is being entered. Customer codes are defined in Maintain Customer Master (SU13). Once the Customer code is entered, the Customer's name automatically displays below this field.

  • In the Check Info section:

    • Number - enter the Check Number of the post-dated Check to a maximum of 8 characters.

    • Check Date - enter or select from the query the Check date.

    • Date Received - enter or select from the query the date on which the post-dated Check was received. This field is for information purposes only.

    • Check Amount - enter the amount of the post-dated Check. If a post-dated Check number is entered in AR30, the deposit (Check) amount automatically defaults to the post-dated Check amount.

    • List Box - once all of the post-dated Check information is entered and you click Update, the information is added to the list box for the current Customer. Double click on a line in the list box to recall the information for review, edit or deletion.

The following table outlines the functionality of each button on the AR32:
