Maintaining ACH Bank Names

Prev Next

The Banks table maps a bank's ABA Routing Number to its bank name. You can add, edit or delete information in this table.

From the Applications menu, select BackOffice Management > Bank Management > Banks to access the Banks table.

Search for a bank

To find an existing bank in the Banks table:

  • Enter one or both of the following:

    • the ABA Routing Number

    • the Bank Name

      Note

      You can use the asterisk (*) wildcard in either field to limit the results of your search.

  • Click Search. This displays the results in the list below the search button.

Add a bank

To add a bank to the list:

  • Right-click in the bank list and select New. This opens the Add Bank window.

  • Enter the ABA Routing Number which must be unique, contain only digits, and be exactly 9 digits in length.

  • Enter the Bank Name which is limited to 50 characters (only the first 50 characters are saved).

  • Click Save.

Change a bank name

To change the name of a bank:

  • Right-click the bank you want to change and select Edit. This opens the Edit Bank window.

  • Change the Bank Name.

  • Click Save.

    Note

    You cannot change the ABA Routing Number. If you need to change a bank’s ABA Routing Number, you must first delete the Bank and then add a new one with the correct routing number.

Delete a bank

To delete a bank:

  • Right-click the row you want to remove and select Delete. This displays a confirmation box.

  • Click Yes to delete the bank.

    Note

    There is no validation prior to deleting a bank. Any bank can be deleted, even if the routing number is in use (for example, on an E-Pay Bank Account).

Importing a bank file

You can import a file containing the ABA Routing Number and Bank Name. See Importing a Bank File.
