Using Chrysanth Cheque Writer

  1. Main Screen
    Main Screen of the Paid Upgrade Edition
    We will explore the features of Chrysanth Cheque Writer by using the screen of the Paid Upgrade Edition as shown above.

  2. Set up Bank Account
    On the main screen, you may choose your Bank Account from the drop down list (or Bank, if you are using the Free Edition). If you are using the Paid Upgrade for the first time, you will need to add new Bank Accounts first by clicking at the ... button next to the drop down list (or access File->Account). A new Select Account window as below will be displayed:

    Select Account Window

    Just click at the New button on this window, and a Bank Account window will be displayed:

    Set up Bank Account

    Enter your bank account details here. In case you need to make Printer Adjustment for this particular bank account, you may also enter the adjustment settings here (For the Free Edition, you can set up Printer Adjustment via Tools->Options->Printer Adjustment, which will apply to ALL banks).

    When you are done with your bank account setup, you may return to the main screen for cheque printing.

  3. Save and Print Cheque
    After that, you will continue to fill in the details of your cheque. You may also decide if you want to print the Date, Payee or Amount by checking the option next to these items.

    You may have noticed that there is also a Wording button with "English" selected. This is to allow you to enter non-English amount in word, such as Arabic or others manually. If you would like to print amount in word in English automatically, always choose the "English" option.

    When you are happy with the cheque details, you may either:
    • save and print the cheque instantly by clicking at the Print button at the bottom of the main screen, OR
    • save without printing by clicking at the Save before printing button, OR
    • print without saving the cheque details by unchecking the option before the Save before printing button

  4. Printing Cheques in Bulk
    In case you need to print many cheques regularly, you may go for bulk printing instead of printing cheques one by one. To prepare for bulk printing, you will need to save your cheque details first either by:


    Once your cheque details are ready, you may access File->Cheque Transaction History as shown below:

    Search, edit and print cheque transaction history

    In this window, you may filter the cheques that you want to print. In the list of cheques shown, you may place a check next to the cheques that you want to print in one go and click Print.

  5. Bank Reconciliation
    You may also perform bank reconciliation by accessing File->Cash Flow / Bank Reconciliation as shown below:

    Keep track of all bank transactions via bank reconciliation

    In the Cash Flow / Bank Reconciliation window, you will be able to view the bank transactions in selected period. If there are some interests or charges incurred on your bank account, you may also record them by clicking at the Add Deposit / Withdrawal button. You may also enter your account's opening balance in the same way.

    Add deposit or withdrawal

    Additionally, in the same Cash Flow / Bank Reconciliation window, you will also be able to view the account balances:
    • Balance: this represents the ACTUAL balance in your account
    • Available: this represents the balance that you are safe to use, after deducting all COMMITTED but not yet cleared cheque amounts. When you set a cheque as Cleared, your account Balance will be deducted automatically.
    • Committed: this represents the total amount of cheque transactions that you have issued but not yet cleared by the bank

    Monitor cash flow easily before writing new cheques
