- Click
on the Task Bar and the following pop up will appear.
The curser will be in the Customer/Account box - Enter the account number or customer name. Entering the account number will automatically show the name after you tab, which you can check to the pay slip. If you do not have an account number then start entering the surname with the drop down option open then click on the name when you recognize it.
- Tab and the details will automatically appear with the Tot Amount in blue.
- If the customer is paying in cash then use the “Up” and “Down” arrows on your keyboard to alter the amount by 5c at a time. There is no need to delete the amount and re-enter it unless it is completely different.
- Tab and enter the description of the payment using the drop down list and clicking on the choice. Cash can be left blank. See Note below for cheques

in the
column, follow the prompts and delete the entry. - You can print the list after you have finished or you can print as you go by clicking on
. You will notice a transaction counter next to the icon.
Note!! You only have to enter the detail the very first time a payment is being entered. You must use the descriptions as they appear in the Parameters in the Main Menu. (click on the drop down in the descriptions column). These details are necessary to create your banking list. There are various ways to enter cheque details. The first thing you must enter is Chq, choose it from the drop down list, then after Chq we recommend that you enter an abbreviated name for the bank, such as NAB, an abbreviated branch name then the cheque number if you think it is necessary. You might like to enter the BSB number instead, the choice is yours. The next time you enter a payment these details will automatically appear and if you have entered a cheque number that will be highlighted and you simply enter the new number.
