Stop Payment Form
Entering Data Input
The Data Entry Page contains the fields of information needed by the bank
to perform your inquiry or stop payment request. Once you complete the necessary
fields you may select the Submit
button to have the transaction sent to the bank for processing. The information
you need to create an inquiry or a stop payment request are the account, the serial
number of the check or checks, and the amount for which the check was written,
if you are working with a single item. Account
Number List
This list box displays accounts to which you have access.
You may place inquiries and/or stops for any of these accounts. Each account in
the list is identified by the bank that holds the account (in case you use this
system to do your cash management for accounts at different banks,) account number,
currency, and account name. To select an account, scroll through the list to find
the account that you want, highlight it and use your left mouse button to click
on it. Serial Number
This is the serial or check number of the check or checks on which you need to
inquire or place a stop. You do not have to provide a serial number, but it will
help speed processing if you do. If you need to work with a single check, enter
the serial number in the from field and leave the to
field alone. If you need to work with a range of checks, enter the lowest serial
number in the from field and the highest in the to
field. When you stop a range of checks, the system will attempt to stop every
item in the range, including the serial numbers you enter for the from
and to values. Therefore, the range you want to stop must be consecutive.
If even a single item in the range is paid, the stop attempt for the entire range
will fail. Amount
This
is the amount of a single item on which you want to inquire or place a stop. Do
not use this field if you are working with a range of checks. If you enter an
amount in this field when you have entered a range of serial numbers, the system
will ignore the amount. When entering the amount be sure to use a decimal point
to separate the dollars and cents, but you do not need to enter any commas within
the dollar amount. Term
This is the length of time for which you want a stop payment to be in force.
The Data Entry Page Buttons
- Submit - Once you
have entered all information and have looked over your entry, click this button
to send the transfer to the bank. Once you have clicked on the Submit
button, you will be presented with the Input Report Page. The Input Report Page
will be displayed to you after the bank's system has received your stop or inquiry
request. This page contains information about your request and notifies you of
the response, allowing you to take another step in the process, if necessary.
- Reset - This button will
reset all fields to their original values. The account list will display the first
account in the list, the check serial number and amount fields will be set to
zero, the term will be set to "6 months", and the request will be reset
to "Inquiry." This allows you to start over, if needed.

for filtering and formatting the data to display on the report. You may use any
or all options, alone or in combination. Account

This
list box displays the banks and accounts for which you may view information. The
default selection is "All Accounts," which would display all information
for all accounts to which you have access. Each account in the list is identified
by the bank, account number, currency, and account name. Date
This is the date that
stop/inquiry transactions were created through this system. You may select a single
date or a range of dates. The date fields default to today's date, but you may
enter any appropriate date or dates in the past. Dates must be entered in day,
month, year format using the numeric values of the month, such as 01
for January and 12 for December. You may enter the year as four digits
or two. The dates you enter are inclusive and if transactions exist for these
dates, they will be displayed. Check

This is a
single check serial number for which you are searching. Bank
Trace Number

is the confirmation number that was assigned to the transaction when it was entered.

bank trace number of 320010 would represent the 10th stop or inquiry entered for
processing date February 1. This number is unique across your bank. Please remember
that stops or inquiries placed on a range of checks are processed in this system
as a single item and receive one bank trace number. Type
