Nacha File Creation

[tena20719]

Hi! I was wondering if I am creating my Nacha file correctly. I processed payroll as usual and created the direct deposit file, which saved it as a .txt file. I then renamed the file to a .ach file.

Can anyone tell me if that is the correct way to process the Nacha files?

Thanks so much!

Well, have you done these previously? Is Direct Deposit setup under the program Preferences -> Accounting Payroll Direct Deposit tab? Did you verify with your bank or direct deposit provider that the file is in the correct format?

The latest MR added the ability to have the program add the correct extension (such as ACH) to the file, again this is found under the Preferences. Not sure exactly what you're looking for.

FWIW .. if everything is setup properly the workflow would be:

1. Process Payroll
2. Print Paystubs for employees
3. Create direct deposit file.
