    Before you begin, make sure you've set up bank accounts in Passare.

    Jump ahead to

     

    Check settings

    To get started, go to Settings > Financials > Checks.

    Settings icon

    Financials > Checks

     

    From this page, you can customize the following sections:

     

    Checkbooks

    Here, you can manage the bank account(s) you'll write the checks from.

    Select Add Account.

    Add checkbook button

     

    Add in checkbook details, like which bank account it's for and what information Passare should print.

    Checkbook name and print settings

     

    Then, determine how Passare should handle check numbering:

    • Pre-assigned assumes the check stock is already numbered.
    • Manual assumes the check stock is not numbered and will be manually entered.
    • Automatic assumes the check stock is not numbered but Passare will auto-fill the check number based on the number you enter in the Next check number field.

     

    You can also associate check transactions, which tie a debit account to the expense when selected per check.

    You can also indicate which users will be notified of activity for this checkbook, like check requests.

    Once your settings are configured, save the page.

    Continue this for any other checkbooks you plan to use in Passare.

      You can also select a Default bank using the checkbox if adding multiple checkbooks.

      To enable Check approvals, toggle on Require check approval.
