Every post-dated cheque, from drawer to bank
Record the cheques customers give you and the ones you write, see what is due this week, deposit them in one batch and match the deposit to your statement. A bounced cheque reopens the invoice.

- Deposit batches
- Bounce and replace
14-day free trial. No card needed.
Know which cheques are due
Each cheque keeps its bank, number, date and photo. Until it clears it sits in “Cheques in hand” or “Cheques issued”, so your cash position never counts money you do not have yet.
- Cheques received from customers and issued to suppliers
- Deposit batches that match one bank line
- Bounced cheques reopen what they paid
- Replacement cheques linked to the bounced one
Real estate uses cheques the most
Rent paid in post-dated cheques is part of Sijilna for Property Management: cheques are collected at signing for the whole lease.
Questions and answers
Why keep post-dated cheques out of cash?
A post-dated cheque is not money until the bank clears it. Sijilna books it to a separate account so your cash and bank balances stay real.
What happens when a cheque bounces?
Mark it bounced: the payment is reversed, the invoice is open again, and you can record a replacement cheque or another payment.
How do I get the cheque register?
It is an add-on for Plus and Premium at AED 49 a month (AED 490 a year), and it comes with every Property add-on and every 14-day trial.
