Deposit Layout is configured per bank account. Calibrate each bank account that prints deposit slips before using live deposit stock.

​
Open Deposit Layout

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Choose Entity Settings.
  3. Open the Payments and Checks group.
  4. Choose Deposit Layout.
Deposit Layout settings page with bank account picker, blank or preprinted slip stock type, global alignment offsets, field position preview, printed element toggles, reset, alignment test, and save controls

​
Select The Bank Account

Choose the bank account whose deposit slip layout you want to edit. The page shows bank name, account last four, and routing details when available. If no bank account appears, add or connect the bank account from the accounting bank setup first. Deposit Layout needs a bank account because each bank can use a different slip format.

​
Choose Slip Stock Type

Choose the stock mode that matches the paper.
  • Blank Slip Stock: Arcus prints bank information, borders, boxes, labels, and variable values.
  • Pre-printed Slip Stock: the bank slip already contains static artwork, so Arcus should usually print only variable values.
Use pre-printed mode when the physical stock already has bank identity, borders, and labels. Printing those elements again can make the deposit slip unreadable.

​
Adjust Global Alignment

Global alignment shifts every printed field by the same horizontal or vertical offset. Use it when every field is slightly too far left, right, high, or low. Start with small changes such as 0.05 inches. Large offsets can push fields outside the printable area.

​
Adjust Per-Field Positions

Per-field positions use inches from the top-left of the slip area. Use them when one field is wrong but the rest of the slip is aligned. Common fields include:
  • Bank name.
  • Bank address.
  • Depositor name.
  • Deposit date.
  • Cash amount.
  • Checks table top.
  • Total amount.
  • MICR routing.
  • MICR account.
The preview helps you see where each field will land before you print a test.

​
Printed Elements

Printed element toggles decide whether Arcus prints bank info, borders and boxes, or field labels. Recommended starting point:
  • Blank slip stock: leave bank info, borders, and labels on.
  • Pre-printed slip stock: turn off anything already printed on the paper.
Use Print alignment test before live use.
  1. Select the bank account.
  2. Choose stock type.
  3. Print an alignment test.
  4. Compare the printed crosshairs, ruler, and fields to the physical slip.
  5. Adjust global alignment first.
  6. Adjust individual fields only when needed.
  7. Save the layout.
  8. Print another test after saving.
Do not use live deposit stock until the alignment test is readable. Misaligned deposit slips can slow down bank processing and create rework for accounting.

​
Save And Realtime Behavior

Unsaved changes stay local until you click Save Layout. If another admin updates the same bank account layout while you are not editing, Arcus can refresh the page with the newer settings. If you have unsaved changes, finish or cancel them before switching bank accounts so you do not lose calibration work.

​
Common Blocks

  • No bank account appears: add a bank account before configuring deposit layout.
  • Save is disabled: you may not have edit permission, or there may be no unsaved change.
  • All fields are shifted: use global alignment before editing individual fields.
  • Only one field is wrong: adjust that field’s X or Y position.
  • Pre-printed slip is cluttered: turn off bank info, borders, or labels that already exist on the paper.
  • Alignment test opens a new tab: allow the popup or use the browser’s new tab prompt.
