Regenerating EFT Transmissions

Use the Regenerate EFT Checks screen to retransmit electronic payments that have already been removed from the staging file. Because the payments have been removed from the staging file, you must regenerate the data before you send the transmission again.

To regenerate an EFT transmission:

1. From the A/P menu, select EFT Transmission Release to display the EFT Transmission Release screen.

2. Populate the Br/Tr/All and Bank Account fields on the EFT Transmission Release screen.

3. Use the Regenerate hot key to display the Regenerate EFT Checks screen.

4. In the Transmit Date field, enter the date for which you want to regenerate the transmission. Typically, this date reflects the date of the original EFT payment that you want to regenerate. This field is required.

5. In the Batch ID field, do one of the following to determine whether or not to regenerate the transmission for check batches:

6. To regenerate the transmission for a particular batch of checks, enter that batch ID.

7. To regenerate the transmission for all batches of checks that have been sent, leave this field blank.

Note: The system generates batch ID numbers when you print documents on the Print Invoice screen. View the System Activity Log to inspect the batch numbers; access to this log requires SYSTEM.ACTIVITY.LOG authorization. For more information, see Printing Invoices.

6. In the Vendor ID field, do one of the following to determine for which vendors you want to regenerate the transmission:

7. To regenerate the transmission for a particular vendor, enter that vendor's name.

Note: If you enter a vendor name in this field, the system regenerates EFT checks for that vendor only.

6. To regenerate the transmission for all vendors, leave this field blank.

7. In the Auto Transmit (Y/N) field, enter one of the following to determine how to transmit the information:

• Y – Selects every EFT check that meets the criteria presently active on the Regenerate EFT Checks screen, recreates the EFT staging file, and transmits the file to the bank when you use the Begin hot key.

• N – Selects every EFT check that meets the criteria presently active on the Regenerate EFT Checks screen, and recreates the EFT staging file. Review the file as necessary on the EFT Transmission Release screen and use the Begin hot key to regenerate when you are ready.

8. Use the Begin hot key to regenerate the data and place it in the staging file.

9. Continue with the process for Sending EFT Transmissions.
