  • Transaction Amount : The amount of the Deposit
  • Transaction Code = DT
  • Service Code = WTD
  • Enter a Comment
  • Deposit Receipt Number: This is not required. You can enter the receipt number of the payment from the when the deposit was paid for reference.
  • Consumption Amount = 1
  • Transaction Date: You can choose to enter the transaction date as the date of the initial payment.
