How to request a cheque, wire or e-transfer for a matter disbursement?
In some cases, you may wish to pay for an expense related to a client from your general account and add that amount as a disbursement to the matter. To do so, you will have to add a cheque, wire or e-transfer request from within the matter.
If you are going to make a payment out of your general account related to a disbursement for a matter, you will have to take the following steps:
1. Go to the matter transactions page.
2. Click the bank account dropdown and select general account

3. Click "Add Outgoing Funds", then select either request cheque, request wire, or request E-transfer.

4. Fill out the information and ensure you click "Add Disbursement" then complete the request. This will create a ghost transaction to keep the matter balances accurate and prevent the General account balance from going negative.
