Overview
This guide explains the process for carrying out a cheque run. Before running this it is a good idea to backup the database, ensure the client show has a copy of the report for reference and perform a test run on a blank piece of paper.
Cheques tend to be of two main types: Cheque only and Cheque plus remittance. You can choose to take into account any under or overpayments made by the exhibitor contact and take these into account when generating the cheques.
1. Set the starting cheque number
2. Review the cheques to be created (Showbiz should amalgamate the prizes and other payments per exhibitor)
3. Generate a report for reference
4. Determine cheque template for use
5. Create the cheques
6. Update the exhibitor accounts with the relevant transactions
Guide to Process1) Select Tasks > Entries > Prizes & Forwards Cheque Run
