Check Issue Maintenance

Check maintenance services enable you to manually add or cancel issue records or inquire into the status of a check. Adds and Cancels process just like an Issue File Transmission and update the ARP and Positive Pay systems as they are submitted. You can create up to 20 entries at a time. Adds should be submitted before checks are distributed. The Check Issue Inquiry function is available on business days, 8:30 a.m. – 11:00 p.m. local time.
