Automatic Payment Processing (BACS File transmission)

Hi,

I am testing our BACS system and so far so good since the tape file is
generated successfully. However, from this point, I do not have any idea as
to which way to carry on testing to make sure the information on the tape
file reaches the Bank accuretly. I am not familiar with JDE Automatic
Payment Processing and have no BACS documentation to rely on therefore, I
would greatly apprecite any assistance on this matter.

Regards,

Khadi

Khadi,

You have to contact the bank you are dealing with and use their own EFT
software (Barclay's uses Business Master for example). Also, even though
the file was generated successfully the format is probably incorrect. The
JDE format for creating any of the tape files (BACS, German domestic and
German international etc...) have always needed modifications from my
experience.

Cheers,
Kent

We have the BACS process running with no problems. You need a Custom program
to output the 'FILE' to a real file, this is quite simple and JDE should be
able to give the basics. Once you have an output file then you need to run
it through your BACS transmission process - this is totally None JDE and is
provided by your Bank. We have a nice PC based system with a dial up link.
We pass the file to the PC (or to a network share viewable by the PC), start
up the Software and tell it the name of the file to send (via a normal
Browse window), the file is selected, validated then sent via the link. If
there are any errors not picked up by the validation you get a message back
from the Bank. I assume you are already using BACS, if yes speak to whoever
runs that process. If no, talk to your bank and get them to set it up.

In general, if you have set up your customers correctly for BACS the output
file from JDE is fine, I do not think we had to modify this part of the
process at all (even in B732.1).
