BPay

How do I set up BPay with my bank? 

In LawMaster the format of the Customer Reference Number (CRN) on invoices is the 8 digit matter number (if your matter numbers are less than 8 digits the program will automatically add leading zeroes) followed by a space, then a check digit. 

The LawMaster BPAY check digit routine is the Standard Luhns Modulus 10 with a weighting of 12121212 used on the matter number which has been zero padded to eight digits, for example, '00001220 3'. 

To have this set up with your Bank: 

1. Contact the bank with these details:
