Description
There are ~195 refund cheques that have made it to their recipients, but they were never cashed.
PT will be writing this money off, so this ticket is just to update the RSs for future reference saying they were un-cached.
For consideration: EFT issues paper cheques as well and will need all of the cheque refund lifecycle statuses that FAS has.
Approach: Review CAS data for a record that PT has adjusted. Plan how we can detect this and represent it in the UI automatically. This method will result in better data long term, and won't inject multiple sources of truth.
Question for finance - How old can an un-cashed cheque live before it's 'written off?'
After 6 months in negotiable status the cheque can be considered stale-dated
Once a cheque is stale-dated then efforts are made to find a new address
Failing all of this, then Finance notifies FASB and they (?procedure pending?) write off

Research direction
Start by reviewing CAS data for a refund cheque record that PT adjusted, as described in the issue, and trace how FAS refund statuses are represented in the UI. Confirm the write-off and stale-dated rules with Finance, then define how un-cashed cheques and the corresponding EFT lifecycle statuses should be detected and displayed without creating another source of truth.
