Bank Transmission File

The Bank Transmission File option enables you to create files for sending payroll check information to your bank after the checks are issued.

Prerequisites

Before using the Bank Transmission File option, you must set up records in the following tables:

Bank Account Information table in Fund Accounting associates check numbers with their bank account numbers. The system recognizes this relationship by matching fund/account combinations in the table with those assigned to your payroll records.

User Defined table in Human Resources enables you to set up a check status translation table so the system can differentiate issued checks from void checks in your bank file. You must set up this table before using the Bank Transmission File Format option.

Bank Transmission File Format table in Fund Accounting defines the format for transmitting check records, according to your bank's specifications. When you run the Bank File Transmission option, the system uses these records to convert your check data to the format required by your bank.
