Performing an ECM Paid-Out

An ECM paid-out operation allows you to distribute funds from a cash management receptacle outside of a guest check. For example, the paid-out funds could be paid to a vendor. These funds decrease the receptacle session balance when posted.

1. Select the function to perform an ECM paid-out operation.
2. If multiple receptacles are available, highlight the appropriate session, and then click OK.
3. Highlight the type of funds (class), and then click OK.
4. Highlight the appropriate vendor, and then click OK.
5. If an account is not pre-defined for the vendor, the application prompts you to select an account, and then click OK. If a pre-defined vendor account is tied to the vendor, the application uses the defined account.
6. Enter a reference for the transaction, and then click OK.

   The Invoice screens appear when the Invoice Data Required option is active for the vendor.

7. Enter the required Invoice Number, and then click OK.
8. Enter the Invoice Description (if required), and then click OK.
9. Enter the amount that is being distributed, and then click OK.
10. Select the reason code for the transaction (if required), and then click OK. You can click Cancel to bypass the reason code when not required. The transaction receipts print on the local printer for distribution.
