With the Remote Check Printing feature, your accountant can prepare your payroll and vendor checks and then transmit PDF copies of them to your NetClient CS portal for you to print.

Setting up the client for remote check printing

To set up a client to use remote check printing, follow these steps.

  1. Choose Setup > Clients and click the Payroll Information tab.
  2. In the Default Check Output section, click the Remote check printing option.
  3. Specify which types of checks should be printed remotely for this client by marking the applicable checkboxes.
    • Payroll checks. You can mark the Send to FileCabinet CS checkbox to send the payroll checks to FileCabinet CS after printing. You can also mark the Exclude net checks checkbox to send only checks with a net check amount of zero to the client portal for remote check printing.
    • Vendor checks. You can mark the Send to FileCabinet CS checkbox to send the vendor checks to FileCabinet CS after printing.
  4. If they don't have one already, create a NetClient CS portal for your client and mark the Remote Check Printing checkbox. For instructions on creating a NetClient CS portal, see Adding client portals. For instructions on enabling remote payroll for an existing NetClient CS user, see Modifying a NetClient CS user's access to Remote Payroll.

Printing payroll checks remotely

If your Accounting CS application has been set up to use remote check printing, the application automatically sends checks to your portal when they are printed.
