account.

sign here.

the number of the check you are writing. They are printed in
special magnetic ink for the bank clearinghouses to read.
Cash: The amount of cash you are depositing.
Check Entry Area: You would write down each check you
are depositing. Put each check on its own line.
Additional Check Entry: The bank of the deposit slip should
have additional spaces for checks if you run out of room on
the front. Put each check on its own line.
Additional Check Entry Total: Add up the checks listed on
the back of the slip ONLY and write the dollar amount here.
Subtotal: Add up all of the cash and check and put the total
dollar amount here.
Less Cash Back: If you want to deposit part of your money,
and get part of your money in cash, you would write the
dollar amount of cash you want here.
Net Deposit: Subtract any cash back you received from your
deposit, and write the remaining amount here. This is your
net deposit.
