- Set up PakAccouting to use a special BlankCheck Font—Approved for Canada. The font, 1awpMICR, can be set up under Utilities > System Options > Check Options.
- In the Bank Account Maintenance > Check Options tab, use the check date format of MM/DD/YYYY. Also, mark Place Date at Above Amt (Canada).
- In Bank Account Maintenance > Company Name Tab - Check Notes sub-tab: Enter optional notes in Check Note #1 or Note #2.
- MICR Check Options tab: Verify the bank's MICR line. You may need to use the Override MICR Scanline button to change the symbols to what your bank requires.
