What do schools say?
“My assistant and I used to write out over 1500 cheques a year. However, with Kalamazoo, our time spent issuing cheques is drastically cut down. Both our familiarity with SIMS FMS and advice from our auditor has made using printed cheques a natural progression. As only two senior members of staff are authorised to use the system and with the high level of security that comes with Kalamazoo cheques, my school is now better protected from cheque fraud. It is much easier to identify any mistakes that have occurred in the inputting procedure and who is responsible for them.” Diane Bonner, Finance Manager, Patcham High School.
