PRINT EFT EDIT REPORT

Use this screen to print a report that contains any ACH file created via the Create EFT File screen.

The report includes the following information:

Information for both live and prenote EFT vendors also prints in this report.

Print this report after creating an ACH file on the Create EFT File screen but before transmitting the file to your bank. If you need to make changes to vendor bank information, do so via the Manage Vendors screen and then recreate the file. Costpoint automatically overwrites the old file with the new file, providing you use the same file name and path. Posted vouchers are not updated with changes to the vendor ID. If you change the vendor ID on the Manage Vendors screen, Costpoint will not be able to find vouchers for the new vendor ID when recreating the ACH file, and the vendor will not be paid the correct amount. Do not change the vendor ID before paying posted vouchers.

When you select the 820 Transaction Set option in the EDI group box on the Create EFT File screen, the file submitted to the bank will have a different layout than the file created when one of the ACH group box options is selected. The main reason for this is the different structures in which the bank will accept submission of the file. When this scenario takes place, the following fields do not display on the EFT Edit Report:  Pay Vendor, TR CD, and Debit Amount.

Identification

Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.

You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.

Parameter ID

Enter, or click to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.

When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.

You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults.

Description

Enter, or click to select, a parameter description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.

Select this check box to include addenda records on the report. The addenda records are the details for the invoices you are paying; they include invoice numbers, invoice dates, invoice amounts, and the discount taken.

The addenda record information comes from the Open Accounts Payable (OPEN_AP) table, from the vouchers selected to be paid on the EFT. Some banks permit addenda records and can handle them, while some banks do not accept them.
