Report Customer Draft or Definite Postdated Check Rejected by Bank before Collection

This document explains how to use 'Bank Remittance. Reconcile Payment' (ARS350) to report a customer draft that has been returned from the bank without having been collected or discounted.

You can also use these instructions to report definite postdated checks (type 1) that have been rejected, since they are managed as payment class 4 documents in M3.

Outcome

Bank remitted drafts or definite postdated checks are reported as unpaid. An accounting journal and a customer payment journal are printed.

Revise and remit the payment documents to the bank again or include them in the customer debt routine.

Accounts receivable and the general ledger are updated. These account entries are created:

Accounting Rule Account Debit Credit
AR75-196/AR75–197 Drafts (and postdated checks) remitted for collection on the due date or drafts remitted for discount x
AR30–195 Drafts not remitted x

The remittance status is set to 11.

If cash register for payment receipts is used, the cash register status for the payment receipt document is set to 10 = Not remitted. See Cash register for customer payment receipts for a detailed description.
