Overview, Prerequisites & Preparing Bill Payments

Abstract

Check Printing is a standalone bundle that integrates with other Charted payment tools or operates independently. It allows users to prepare and approve bill payments for check processing directly within NetSuite. Once a bill payment is marked for printing and approved, the check can be generated and printed using the assigned configuration.

This article explains how to prepare bill payments for check printing in NetSuite and send them to On-Premise Check Printing.

You can view all pending bill payments by clicking Transactions > Payables > Pay Bills > List > View > Approve. You can also click on the To Be Printed link and press Submit for Approval.

   

This concludes the overview and process of preparing and approving bill payments using the Check Printing bundle.
