What role do cheques play in government accounting?

Many payments by Iraqi government departments are made by cheque. The cheque is the step where money actually leaves the department's account, after the payment voucher has been prepared, audited and approved.

Accounts sections therefore need cheques to be clear and tied to the vouchers they were issued for.

Why keep cheques in the same system as vouchers and the budget?

When cheques are tracked in separate software or a paper register, matching a cheque to its payment voucher and allocation becomes manual work.

In Genoa Gov, cheques are part of the same system, which makes it easier to trace a cheque back to its payment voucher and to the allocation it was paid from.

How do cheques connect to the rest of Genoa Gov?

Cheques in Genoa Gov connect to three other modules:

  • Vouchers and approval: the cheque follows the payment voucher and its approval.
  • Budgets and allocations: the amount paid by cheque falls within an allocation.
  • Month and year closing: cheques are part of the accounts of the period being closed.
