Cheques Module

Organize cheques that have entered the legal process and link each cheque to the counterparty, file, action, and outcome.

Legal Affairs may receive uncollected or returned cheques requiring a claim, settlement, or court case. When tracked in separate lists, it becomes difficult to know their status, documents, or next action.

The module is limited to cheques referred to Legal Affairs or the legal collection and settlement process. It records cheque, bank, issuer, counterparty, status, and document data and links the cheque to the registration file, case, and enforcement.
