Processing PR EFT Payments
The PR EFT Payments process is used to generate a NACHA file for electronic funds transfer, facilitating direct deposits to employees' bank accounts.
Before you start
- Ensure all employee direct deposit information is correctly entered in the system.
- Verify that the payroll group and pay period details are accurate.
Steps
- Navigate to thePR EFT Paymentsform.
- Select the payroll group for which you want to process EFT payments.
- Enter the pay period ending date.
- Specify the effective date of the payment, which should match the paid date.
- Ensure the paid month matches the effective date.
- Enter the CM reference field, typically matching the effective date (e.g., 070925 for July 9th).
- If processing multiple payroll groups, append a dash and number to the CM reference (e.g., 070925-1).
- Click the update button to assign payment information to all employees being paid by EFT.
- Go to the download tab and download the NACHA file.
- Upload the NACHA file to your bank to initiate the direct deposits.
Notes
- Ensure the effective date and paid month match to avoid discrepancies.
- Double-check the CM reference field for accuracy, especially when processing multiple payroll groups.
