Cheque/Remittance Advice Section

Although the use of cheques as a payment method is reducing, most organisations that use cheques have a pre-printed document that has a remittance advice section with details of the transactions being paid, and a specifically formatted section for the cheque which fits their banks cheque layout and specification.

This example template is a simple combined Remittance/Cheque. This type of format has a minimum of two sections - the <<LINES>> section contains the formatting of the transaction lines being paid on the attached cheque, and <<CHEQUE>> contains the formatting for the cheque portion of the document.

Above the lines section is the supplier and relevant addressing detail.

For detail on the available substitution codes, see Transaction Substitution Codes.

Example Remittance Advice/Cheque Template

Any template which has cheque formatting substitution codes in it can only be output to a printer - it can not be output to any editable target such as a document file etc.
