Bank - Unpresented Cheque b/f        

If your company was previously using other accounting software or upgraded from Realtimme Foxpro version to the Realtimme cloud version,
you probably will have some cheques issued out (GL or AP ) but not cleared as yet in current month.

 
If you have cheques issued to suppliers (or bank in from customer ) in your last financial period, yet to be presented in the last financial month (bank statement) when you commence your Realtimme cloud system, you can enter the cheques and the amount into Realtimme system to be reflected during your first month of the bank reconciliation in Realtimme.
