Bank Reconciliation > Processing Positive Pay

There may be instances where a positive pay file is lost, sent to the wrong bank, or that the format assigned at the time the file was generated was incorrect. These circumstances may require you to generate again a positive pay file for a bank account.

The Regenerate Positive Pay function allows you to create another positive pay file using the latest settings in the Bank Account Maintenance for the bank # assigned to the selected positive pay file. In this function, however, only checks that are included in the selected positive pay file number will be included in the new file that will be created.

To regenerate a positive pay file, perform the following:

1.Access the Regenerate Positive Pay function from the Bank Transaction group of the Transactions menu in the Bank Reconciliation module.

2.Click the List box button beside the Bank # field to select from a drop-down list the bank account code for whom you want to recreate the positive pay file.

3.The Currency field shows for your reference, the currency code assigned to the selected bank account.

4.Click the List box button beside the Positive Pay File field; then, select from the drop-down list the positive pay file name from the selected bank account for which you want to recreate.

Note: When a positive pay file is regenerated, it will be assigned a new filename.

5.When you are ready, click the Generate button for the system to create the new positive pay data file; otherwise, click the Cancel button to abort this process.

Notes:

•The new filename assigned to the positive pay file that is regenerated is based on the File Prefix and Next Batch settings defined for the bank account. The file will be stored in the Directory you defined when you set up the Positive Pay parameters for the bank account in the Bank Account Maintenance..

•The File Type setting in the Positive Pay page of the bank account's maintenance will be used to determine the type of new file that will be created.
