This may be set to:

  • None: This refers to, no contra entry to debit your account in the EFT file.
  • Single: One Contra Entry should be included in the EFT file. Note the EFT information for this is located in the Bank Account record that is used for the source of the transfer.
  • Multiple: One, and optionally several, Contra Entries should be included in the EFT file.

Note

You should check with your bank for the correct setting, and test the files with the bank before you commence using this function.
Bank DDT Type:

This may be set to:

  • Blank
  • Standard
  • Pre-processing
