A deposit slip is used for banking transactions where money will be put into "" that is, deposited into "" an account. The information on a deposit slip usually includes the name of the account holder, the account number and bank routing number, and the amount to be deposited. When filing out a deposit slip, it is important to list all cash, then each individual check, and then add up the total.
. This way, if there is any difference or discrepancy between the amount that the depositor thought he or she was depositing, and the amount that the bank indicates in the deposit, the cause of this discrepancy can be determined easily. you thought you were depositing and what the bank says you deposited, the cause may be easily determined.The first line for the deposits is generally reserved for the amount of cash in the deposit. This cash can take the form of paper bills or coinage. It is generally useful to roll coins, if there is a large amount, but this is not a universal requirement among all banks.When the depositor lists each check for the deposit, it is also useful if the depositor lists the check number in the blanks included for listing each check, especially if there are several checks included on a single deposit slip. The depositor can usually find the check number in the upper right hand corner of the checks.If the depositor plans to request some amount of the deposit in cash, he or she should enter that amount in the bottom line of the deposit slip, often labelled with the words "less cash received," or something similar. If the depositor is requesting cash back, he or she is requested to sign the deposit slip on a particular line.The depositor must then add up all of the cash and checks in the deposit, subtract the amount of cash that the depositor is to receive, and put this total amount in the bottom blank of the deposit slip.
