EFT Processing features

EFT File Creation

EFT Processing automatically creates EFT files in the format required by your bank, for both payments and receipts:

  • Creates EFT Payment files based on the standard Sage 300 processing routines, i.e. Accounts Payable Payments and Accounts Receivable Customer Refunds
  • Creates EFT Direct Debit files based on the standard Sage 300 Accounts Receivable receipt processing routine
  • Optionally, when generating bank files it lets you elect to skip or error on Vendors or Customers who are not defined in EFT Processing
  • Summary transaction logs are created

Bank File Formats supported:

  • EFT Processing already supports formats for hundreds of banks, in many countries around the world
  • Supports user-definable bank formats
  • Orchid Systems are frequently adding new formats, or updating existing ones
  • If the format you need is not currently supported it can be created by Orchid Systems upon request

Remittance Advice and Processing Options

  • Remittance Advices can be emailed, using standard Sage 300 functionality, to EFT-specific Customer or Vendor email addresses
  • Outbound emails can be throttled or capped to cater for email platform restrictions

Security Features
