Employee lost cheque
If an employee cheque has been lost, a stop payment should be placed in addition to reissuing the cheque.
Tasks
Initiate a stop payment via IVR to ensure the cheque has not been cashed. See Stop payment on an employee's deposit or cheque.
- If the stop is successful, do you require a replacement cheque stub with all information reprinted?
Yes
A reversal and manual entry will need to be keyed. Initiate an extra run. Service fees apply.
No
There are three options to pay your employee:
- Customer to issue a replacement cheque internally.
- Customer to initiate an extra run. Service fees apply.
Tip: If the incorrect payment included a garnishee deduction or an amount payable to a third-party vendor, special coding is required to prevent the reissuance of the payment. Contact your Customer Support Team if you need assistance.
- Customer to initiate a new cheque via IVR.
Select option 2 for the refund option when placing the stop payment.
Note: This process can take up to 10 business days.
- If the stop payment is unsuccessful, a cheque trace may be requested. Contact your Customer Support Team if you would like this service initiated and advise at the same time if a cheque copy is desired.
