Checkbook Register Inquiry

The purpose of the Checkbook Register inquiry is to show all the payments that have been made within a checkbook. Unlike the Checkbook Transaction Inquiry, this only shows individual payments and no other checkbook transactions. This also shows the individual ACH Payments, not the combined batch that was uploaded to the bank. From here, users can open the payment batch that included the payment, view the payment applications, void/reverse transactions, and open the Reconciliation transaction. No data can be edited directly in this Inquiry.

The new layout can also be set as the default, instead of the System View.
