Use the NACHA File Format tab to enter file format information if you use the ACH network to make electronic funds transfer (EFT) payments through your bank.

The NACHA File Format tab displays in Banks Settings only if you have the Accounting, Expense, or Payroll application installed.

The file format information that you enter on this tab is used to create a file for your bank when you process:

  • Payroll direct deposits
  • Employee expense direct deposits
  • Accounts payable EFT payments to vendors

The formatting that you enter on this tab does not apply to Export to Text files that are created in Accounts Payable and Employee Expenses Payment Processing.

Field Description
Immediate Origin Number Enter your company identification number, provided by the bank that is associated with this bank code.

This number contains the routing number of the ACH Operator or sending point. The 10-character field begins with a blank in the first position, followed by the four-digit Federal Reserve Routing Symbol, the four-digit ABA Institution Identifier, and the Check Digit (bTTTTAAAAC).

This field may also be mutually defined between the originating depository financial institution (ODFI) and originator. For example, the ODFI may ask its originator to put its tax identification number in this field; however, the field must contain the routing number of the sending point when the file is delivered to the ACH operator.

The bank to which the file is submitted and from which the direct deposit payments is withdrawn, tells the enterprise (originator) what they expect to find in this field. Usually this is the routing number of the enterprise's bank.

Immediate Origin Name Enter the name of your enterprise.
Immediate Destination Number Enter the identification number of the bank to which the direct deposit file will be sent. This is the identification number of the bank that is associated with this bank code.
Immediate Destination Name Enter the name of the bank to which the direct deposit file will be sent. This is the name of the bank associated with this bank code.
Company Name Enter the name of your enterprise as you want it to display on statements.
Company ID The Company ID is an alphanumeric code that is used to identify the originator (the enterprise that submits the file). Enter your nine-digit IRS Employee Identification Number (EIN). Or, enter a number based on the Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) or a user-assigned value.

When you enter a DUNS or user-assigned number, you must modify the qualifier in the Identification Code Designator (ICD) field on this form.

The bank to which the file is submitted and from which the direct deposit payments are withdrawn tells you what number to enter in this field. In most cases, it is your Employee Identification Number.

Routing Number Enter the eight-digit routing transit number that is assigned to your company by the bank that is associated with this bank code. If this routing number has nine digits, enter the first eight digits only. DPS calculates the ninth digit.
Payroll Entry Description Enter a description for the employee payroll direct deposit entry.
Payroll File Name Enter the file name for the direct deposit file, such as DIRDEP.TXT.
Expense Entry Description Enter a description for the employee expense payments direct deposit entry.
Expense File Name Enter the file name for the employee expense payments direct deposit file. The default file name that prefills in this field is DIRDEP.TXT, which is located in the current default directory. If you are unable to locate this file, contact your DPS administrator.
AP Payment Entry Description Enter a description or purpose for the Accounts Payable EFT payment entry.
AP Payment File Name Enter the file name for the Accounts Payable EFT payment file. The default file name that prefills in this field is DIRDEP.TXT, which is located in the current default directory. If you are unable to locate this file, contact your DPS administrator.
File Format From the drop-down list, select one of the following options that determine the accounting entries to include in each direct deposit processing run:
  • Credits Only: The run includes only credit entries (individual employee entries).
  • Credits and Debit: Therun includes credit entries and the debit entry to the company account for the total amount.
Account Number Enter the bank account number of the bank from which payment for the total amount of the direct deposit will be made. This is the bank account number that is associated with this bank code.

This option is enabled only when you select Credits and Debit in the File Format field.

Account Type From the drop-down list, select Checking or Savings as the type of account associated with this bank code.

This field is enabled only when you select Credits and Debit in the File Format field.

Separate Batches for Credits and Debit Select this check box if you want to place the debit entry to the company account in a separate batch from the credit entries.

If you do not select this check box, the debit entry to the company account is placed at the end of the batch that contains the credit entries.

This option is enabled only when you select Credits and Debit in the File Format field on this tab.

Identification Code Designator (ICD) Select an item from the drop-down list or enter your own character that will be used to qualify the entry in the Company ID field. The ICD value is placed in byte 41 of the company batch header record and in byte 45 of the company batch control record, each of which precedes the Company ID value.

The options are:

  • 1: IRS Employer Identification Number (EIN)
  • 3: Data Universal Numbering Systems (DUNS)
  • 9: User Assigned Number
Include ICD in Immediate Origin Number Select this check box if you want the bank’s Identification Code Designer (ICD) number to be placed in position 14 of record type "1" (line 1) in the generated ACH file.
File Header Byte 4 Character Enter a value in this field to be placed in byte 4 of the file header record. This is the first character in the space reserved for the value entered in the Immediate Destination Number field.
File Padding Select this check box to add dummy records (all 9s) after the file control record in the direct deposit processing file to force the total record count to be a multiple of 10 (if it is not a multiple of 10 at the end of processing).
