What is the policy and procedure for dealing with a bounced tithing check? Is it run through again, or does the member re-issue it?

I found the procedure for the special case where the returned check was for the prior year. It doesn't indicate if there's extra flexibility for the more general case of same-year.

The procedure is found in the Church Unit Banking Services (CUBS) wiki page under Returned donor checks:
Checks accepted for donations that are dishonored by the donor's bank will be reversed at Church headquarters. A letter along with the returned check will be sent to the donor. The donation will be adjusted in MLS the next time you do a Send/Receive Changes. If due to multiple donation instruments (several checks, cash and check) the adjustment is not done correctly, the member will need to contact the ward clerk to make adjustment to the donation.
