Attaché Payroll: Set the location of a Bank Transfer (ABA) file when generated

Updated over 2 months ago

A bank folder should be created on a new environment, either local setup or Cloud Hosted Services, so when the bank files are generated, these can be saved in the banking folder.

When generating the bank file for the first time, lookup, locate the folder and save this setting. Take note of the folder. If you need the files to be emailed to the bank or to upload via the banking portal and these services are only available on local setup, or desktop, move, as in cut and paste, to your local desktop or shared folder on your local network.


Moving an ABA file

To move an ABA file, do the following:

  1. Go to Payroll, Transactions, Check Payroll, Check Pays.

  2. Go to Payroll, Process Payroll, Pre-Process Reports, Bank Transfers.

  3. In Options, Report Options, Destination Path, press F2 to look bank folder. Select the folder and click SAVE F5 to save the path.

  4. Click Print F9 to generate the ABA file.

  5. Go to the banking folder on cloud or if on local network, select the aba file(s).

  6. Cut and Paste - moving to your local network. Put it on a shared folder so it can be accessed by other payroll officers.
