MoneyPennyEFT has an advanced File Creation capability. The files are stored in Control Groups, which is a term we use to keep them organized in the system. This means that you have the last 100 files stored in the system in case you ever need to re-create a file.

Example Generate Bank File Screen Shot:

In our screen shot below, files are Pending, until they are Generated by you. Select the Pending file that you want to make into a bank file and click Generate. The file will be created. The Generate Bank File form has an Over-ride capability to change:

• Originator ID - in case your bank wants you to send a TEST file using a different value
• Data Centre Number (#) - in case your bank needs a special TEST number
• File Creation Number (#) - in case your bank needs to have a special number like "0000" for a TEST.
• Creation Date - in case your PC clock is not correct with the actual real date you can change it.
• Carridge Return - this is used in the file at the end of each record, check with your bank before changing
• Line Feed - this is used in the file at the end of each record, check with your bank before changing

The system has a "Transmission Report" on the button bar that allows you to preview and print the payments in the file before you sent them to the bank. See below for a screen shot.

This example shows the previously generated files and their approve dates.
