Inward Clearing series - I


Dear readers , we present you the Inward clearing operations in finacle , accordingly today we will discuss whats Inward clearing is and how to open an Inward clearing zone and subsequently we will discuss other functions.

INWARD CLEARING

The   branch  customers   are   regularly  issuing cheques   as   payments   to   third   parties.Those collecting  banks  also  lodged  these  chqeues  through  their  outward  clearing  to Clearing House. On daily basis Clearing House distributes these collected cheques  to all  Bank-Branches.  Every  Bank-branch  receives  the  cheques  of  their  customer  for  payment  from  RBI  through  Inward  Clearing.  There  are  also  some  Zones  in  Inward Clearing.

Apart from that every Bank-branch gets Outward Return cheques with this Inward Clearing.   These   cheques   are   also   debited   to   customer’s   accounts   through Inward Clearing Zone i.e. Outward Reject Zone.

The cheque collection and maintaining the Inward clearing operation is generally done by a Centralised Back end office i.e Service Branch or Clearing Processing center on behalf of Branches .

  3. Posting of inward clearing after verification takes huge time to complete.That too takes 2/3 times to complete. Is there any menu for bulk posting where​ one can complete it in one time? Waiting for an early reply from you.
