Abstract

There are disclosed herein methods and systems for affecting the accounting functions of debiting and crediting a bank's accound records, a payor's bank account records and a corporations's accounts receivable or balance forward records with their customer's payments, and are based on the ability of a payment coupon with appropriate payor's authorization and necessary pre-printed machine readable data to create a variety of multi-function transactions. By combining all of the required data elements in a single payment coupon document at either the time of preparation or at the time of receipt of the payment coupon by the corporation, the requirement for subsequent redundant, labor intensive processes are eliminated. The single payment coupon becomes a multi-functional document which generates the transaction to effect the customer's accounts receivable or balance forward, the negotiable instrument to (1) credit the corporation's bank account and (2) debit the customer's bank account while creating a complete audit trail and accountability at each separate processing level.
