Short answer: In CK Tech microfinance software, settlement reconciles the cash an agent hands over against the payments the agent collected. The cashier enters the cash received; the system stores the expected amount, the received amount, any shortage and the remarks. A shortage needs remarks, cash above the collected total is refused, and all of the agent's unsettled payments are marked settled under one settlement number.

How does a settlement work?

Settlement is a short, fixed routine, so it takes the same minutes every day.

Unsettled summary

The screen shows what the agent collected and has not yet handed over.

Cash received

The cashier counts the cash and enters the amount received.

Comparison

The system keeps the expected amount, the received amount and the shortage side by side.

Remarks

If the cash is short, remarks are mandatory, so the reason is on record.

Settlement number

All of the agent's unsettled payments are marked settled under one settlement number.

Why reconcile every day?

Because collections are made in cash by people in the field, a daily comparison finds a difference while it is still one day old and one agent wide. The settlement history lets you look back at which agent was short, by how much and what the reason was.

Who is allowed to settle?

Settlement is a screen like any other, so access follows the user's role. Only users whose role has the settlement privileges can open it or settle an agent.

  1. Open the settlement screen and choose the collection agent.
  2. Check the unsettled summary of what the agent collected.
  3. Count the cash and enter the amount received.
  4. Add remarks if there is a shortage, then settle.
