A payment file is generated via the BACS/ABA & Cheque Run, for more information on this function, click here: BACS/ABA Run

Two configuration-related updates are available for payment files:

1. Control where a payment file is saved

A default location for payment files to be saved to can be set-up (by Reapit Support)
A separate location can be set for each payment type, plus one/more can be set up as required
Payment types are: BACS/ABA, International, Faster, Next Day, CHAPS
When a default location has been set-up, it is locked down and cannot be changed by the user

2. Prevent payment file from being viewed

After a payment file is generated, it cannot be viewed

Both options are explained further below

1. Control where a payment file is saved (where configured)

A default file path/location can be set on one or more payment types

In this example, default file paths have been set for BACS and International Payments payments but have not been set for Faster Payments and Next Day Payments (no CHAPS payment is being processed)

From BACS and Cheque Run:

Carry out processes as normal and click Prepare
In this example, BACS, Faster, International & Next Day payments are being processed

The payment types set with default file paths (i.e. BACS & International Payments) are shown and are not editable

2. Prevent payment file from being viewed (where configured)

From Prepare BACS and Cheques screen (as shown above):

Click link to prepare the appropriate payment file (e.g. BACS)
In this example a BACS payment file has been created
The option to View BACS file is greyed out
