= SUMMARY =

On-Line Services assigns numbers to electronic payments (EPay) beginning with the number 100. This can lead to duplicate check numbers and reconciling errors. You can, however, request custom EPay starting numbers.

To request a custom electronic payment starting number, contact On-Line Services at (630) 300-3020.

= MORE INFORMATION =

To avoid assigning duplicate numbers to electronic payments sent through On- Line Services, a file at On-Line Services keeps track of the electronic check numbers you have used. 100 is the default starting number of this file.

When you start an EPay transaction, the number field has an electronic lightning bolt symbol to the left of the word Epay to designate it as a transaction to send in your next On-Line Services session.

When you send an EPay transaction, the check number changes to a large graphic letter “E” to the left of the number to show that the transaction has been sent by a online session.

When you reconcile your account during an online session, the transaction will then be marked “E” in the cleared field to show that it has cleared the bank and matches the account book.

For additional information about EPay transactions, query on the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
