CDK has introduced enhanced check payment detail reporting within Foundations Suite. Dealers can now select a dedicated "Check" tender type and capture additional payment information during the transaction process to support more accurate settlement and reconciliation.

What's New

  • New "Check" tender type available during payment processing.
  • Ability to capture the last four digits of the customer account number.
  • Optional check number field for improved payment tracking.
  • Optional notes field to record additional payment details and context.
  • Payment information is captured at the time of acceptance to improve downstream reconciliation.

How This Helps Car Dealers

  • Speeds up payment reconciliation by capturing check details at the time of payment.
  • Reduces errors by storing key information, such as account details and check numbers, within the transaction record.
  • Improves payment tracking and audit readiness with more complete transaction documentation.
  • Helps back office teams resolve payment questions faster and manage cash flow more efficiently.

Key Takeaways

Check Payment Detail Reporting helps dealerships improve payment tracking and reconciliation by capturing check-specific details, including account information, check numbers, and notes, directly within Foundations Suite.
