The steps are given below. There are many whitepapers available in the metalink.

1. Define the bank, branch and bank account
2. Define Receipt Class for Auto Lockbox
3. Define Receipt Source
4. Define Autocash Ruleset
5. Define Customer - Attach the receipt method and create the customer bank account (Branch number and account number together decides the MICR number)
6. Define Lockbox (Setup --> Receipts --> Lockboxes --> Lockboxes)
7. Define Transmission Formats (Setup --> Receipts --> Lockboxes --> Transmission Formats)
8. Modify (or create a new one) the existing control file to suit the above formats
9. Run Autolockbox
10. Submit Validation
11. Submit Post Quickcash.

Cheers,

Receipt class mainly decides the routing of the instrument.

1. How do you want to create the receipt (Manual or Automatic)
2. Do you want to remit the instrument? If yes, standard or factored?
3. Do you want to reconcile? If Yes, how?

You can create the receipt class based on the answers for the above questions. You don't need to create a new receipt class if the existing one satisfies your requirement.

But for auto lockbox, you should create receipt source which is not a mandatory step for normal receipt.
