The Vendor tab of the Check Printing Fees dialog allows you to add or modify different types of check printing charges (per check, electronic transaction, or check run) for checks that you prepare for your client's payroll vendors.
Choose Setup > System Configuration > Fees > Check Printing Fees. In the Check Printing Fees dialog, choose the Vendor tab.
Note: If the Include vendor checks checkbox is marked on the Payroll tab of the Check Printing Fees dialog, the Vendor tab will be inactive and all vendor checks will use the check printing fees specified in the Payroll tab.
You may complete either the individual fields or the grids, or both. However, if you complete both the individual fields and the grids within the Vendor tab, the application will calculate and add together all of the charges specified.
Fields & buttons
Displays the descriptive title of the currently selected schedule of check printing fees (as entered on the Payroll tab of the Check Printing Fees dialog).
If a check processing fee is to be charged for each vendor check printed, enter the per-check fee amount.
If a check processing fee is to be charged for each electronic transaction, enter the amount of the fee.
Note: There is one electronic transaction for each vendor check entered, plus one for each print run. The fee will be charged for each such transaction.
If a check processing fee is to be charged each time you print payroll checks and regardless of the number of checks being processed, enter the amount of the processing fee.
Enter an amount in this field to specify the minimum amount to be charged for a check run. If the invoice total is lower than the minimum amount, the invoice total will automatically reflect the minimum fee.
Use grid line that matches total checks
Causes the application to calculate fees based on the total number of checks rather than sequentially using the grid.
Example
Assume that you have a graduated fee schedule as follows:
- 1 to 30 checks @ $1.00 per check
- 31 to 50 checks @ $0.50 per check
If you print 31 checks, the application would normally calculate a charge of $30.50. If the Use grid line that matches total checks checkbox is marked, the $0.50 fee is used for all 31 checks, totalling $15.50.
Hide calculation detail on invoice
Hides the detailed calculation information for each item on the invoice.
Use check date for invoice date
Causes the invoice date to default to the check date on the check run, rather than the system date when the checks are printed.
To use a graduated fee structure based on varying quantities of vendor checks processed in Payroll CS, complete the applicable the cells in this grid.
Example
Assume that you have a graduated fee schedule as follows:
- 1 to 30 checks @ $1.00 per check
- 31 to 50 checks @ $0.50 per check
If you print 31 checks, the application would calculate a charge of $30.50.
Note: If the Use grid line that matches total checks checkbox is marked, the $0.50 fee is used for all 31 checks, totalling $15.50.
The Miscellaneous fees grid enables you to enter fees and specify the description and amount. The fees entered in this grid are added to the invoice along with the check-printing fees.
