Error message if creditor bank details are not valid

My understanding is that the bank details for creditors cannot have a "-" in the BSB number. However, it will still let you enter it into the creditor file incorrectly. It would be great if the system did not let you proceed if this is the case.


Currently the payment preview report does not flag if there is an issue with the bank details either. The payment value is still included when we process the payment and consolidate the EFT. It is not until we extract the payment that the file fails. Then we need to cancel the EFT and restart the payment process. This is frustrating when you've already checked the file and values at three different points - just for it to fail!


Side note - it's really annoying that the payroll bank details require a "-" in the BSB, but the creditor bank details prohibit it.

    Maintenance of Bank details in the creditor file can be locked down to only
    those employees that require it.
    EFTSure is also worth looking into which has an integration to Jobpac
    through DataFeile.

    Thanks Andrew, we will look into that parameter for payroll. Did you have any thoughts on a safeguard for bank details in the creditor file?

    Hi Emily,
    There is a parameter setting that removes the requirement to enter the dash
    in the Payroll BSB.
    Please reach out to support for information on the parameter details.
    Hope it helps!
    cheers
