Instrument is any source document which can be used to carry out a financial transaction. For example, Cash deposit voucher, check deposit voucher, Check are some of the instruments. Instruments includes:

  • What is the transaction to be carryout (i.e Cash deposit voucher is used to deposit cash into an account)
  • Value of the transaction (Amount in Figures etc...)
  • Additional particulars of the transaction (Account Numbers, Names, Reference Numbers, Addresses etc...)

Instrument is a vital document for a bank because, all bank transactions are generated by an Instrument.
