How do I see the cheques waiting to clear?
Open the Cash & Bank board. Its Cheques section shows cheques issued and received through cheque-type payment methods that no Bank Transaction has cleared yet, with how many are post-dated.
Steps
- Open the Cash & Bank board. Leave the dates empty for the current fiscal year to today, or set an end date to see the position on that day. Pick a Bank to see one bank only.
- Read the Cheques section: Cheques issued not yet cleared, Cheques received not yet cleared, and Cheques waiting to clear, one row per cheque.
- Clear the ones on the statement on Bank Transactions.
If something looks wrong
- A cheque I reversed the clearing of does not come back. Reverse leaves the Cleared tick on the payment line.
- A cheque is missing. Its payment or collection is not Posted, or its payment method is not of the cheque type.
