Reference: Magnetic Ink Character Formats
If your bank requires a magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) business format that isn't
delivered in the Workday standard check layout, you can define a custom MICR in the
Formatted MICR
field when setting up banks. To define a custom magnetic ink character recognition (MICR), use these formatted
values:
Valid Values | Description |
|---|---|
Numbers 0 - 9 | Use numeric characters to define routing numbers and account
numbers. |
Spaces | Use spaces for variable length fields such as check
numbers. |
A | Transit Symbol. |
B | Amount Symbol. |
C | On-Us Symbol. |
D | Dash Symbol. |
# | Represents a check number digit. Repeat as many times as necessary
to represent the largest acceptable check number. |
F | This symbol indicates that the on-us symbol floats to the start of
the check number instead of printing in a fixed location. |
