How to Process an NSF Payment

Last modified at March 5th, 2021

Overview 

 The process outlined in this document should be used in the event of a Received on Account NSF or a POS Cash and Carry NSF cheque situation.


 Procedures

First, ensure that security is set correctly. Click on Edit, Software Settings and select the Users menu. Select the appropriate user you want to review.  Click the Security Tab and expand the Daily Work section and go to Payment Entry. NFS Processing should have a check in the box.
 

From here, click at the top of the Software Settings menu on Company And Stores and then Company Settings

Enter the NSF Fee amount and the NSF description that will be added to the new system generated NSF entry. 

                                    

From the Payment Entry Screen select the NSF button or press <F11>.
 

                                          

A Payment list will display. First, select the Date for NSF at the bottom of the window to reset the aging on the Paid Invoices. Now, either double click the NSF payment or highlight the NSF payment and click the Process NSF button.  Select Process NSF and then Yes on the following dialogue box.
 

                                           

Once the NSF is completed, the original invoice(s) will re-appear in the Aging List as well as a new invoice prefixed with NSF, the amount of the pre-determined NSF Charge, in background, the NSF description and the date as specified in the Date of NSF field. 

                                                  

For simplicity sake, the same process is used to process an NSF Check that was received at POS for a Cash and Carry customer. Repeat steps 4 to 6. 

If the customer is going to pay with an alternate method of tender complete the payment in this screen against the outstanding invoice(s).
