CheckCreate Fields

In addition to the common fields, CheckCreate transactions use the following fields:

Field	JSON Type	Internal Type	Description
`Destination`	String	AccountID	The unique address of the account that can cash the Check.
`SendMax`	Currency Amount	Amount	Maximum amount of source currency the Check is allowed to debit the sender, including transfer fees on non-XRP currencies. The Check can only credit the destination with the same currency (from the same issuer, for non-XRP currencies). For non-XRP amounts, the nested field names MUST be lower-case.
`DestinationTag`	Number	UInt32	(Optional) Arbitrary tag that identifies the reason for the Check, or a hosted recipient to pay.
`Expiration`	Number	UInt32	(Optional) Time after which the Check is no longer valid, in seconds since the Ripple Epoch.
`InvoiceID`	String	Hash256	(Optional) Arbitrary 256-bit hash representing a specific reason or identifier for this Check.

If the Expiration of the transaction is in the past, the transaction fails with the result tecEXPIRED.
If the sender does not have enough XRP to meet the owner reserve after adding the Check, the transaction fails with the result tecINSUFFICIENT_RESERVE.
