Overview

Note: Settlement is the replacement for Accounting and should be used instead of Accounting. Accounting is to be used only by customers who have already implemented it in a check processing environment and are migrating to FTM Check. Accounting must be used in an environment that has only FTM Check installed. Do not run Accounting and Settlement in the same environment.

Accounting generates accounting entries for inbound and outbound cash letters processed by the system.

Inbound, outbound, and adjustment accounting are tasks which run in the Services Framework environment. These tasks run when events occur within the system, such as an inbound cash letter being accepted, or they can be run manually by an operator. The accounting extract task can be scheduled to run at certain times or it can be executed manually by an operator.
