EFTXpress is an add on product which enables Cashbook users to select EFT as a Cashbook batch type. During posting of the EFT batch an EFT file is generated in the specific format your bank requires to process the EFT payments.

The list of bank formats available for EFTXpress is increasing all the time as more and more users provide PereSoft with their EFT bank formats to take advantage of the new EFT functionality. Provide us with your EFT bank format and we will add it to the list of formats already available.

EFTXpress Bank Setup

From the Bank Format drop down list you can select your bank format. Consult the Bank Formats Available for EFTXpress list on the Peresoft website to see which bank formats are available.

If your bank format is not on the list you need to supply PereSoft with the following information:

• A detailed record layout of your EFT bank format which can be obtained from your bank.
• The name of the EFT Bank Format. This name will be used in the Bank Format drop down on the EFTXpress Bank Codes screen.
• The serial number of the EFTXpress purchased. PereSoft will only write the interface for the EFT bank format for clients who have already purchased EFTXpress. This will ensure development costs of the new bank format is covered. All new banks formats are automatically included in the updates to EFTXpress which is available to all users within the region.

Setup Miscellaneous Codes for EFTXpress

EFTXpress requires additional information for Vendors and Customers depending on which bank format you are using.

You are able to enter additional information for multiple banks for each Miscellaneous Code.

To link a Miscellaneous Code to an existing Vendor or Customer, use the same Vendor or Customer number that you used in ACCPAC Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable. When creating an EFT batch and entering the Vendor or Customer number in Batch Entry, Cashbook will retrieve this information from the CB Miscellaneous Codes table.

Creating an EFT Batch

An extra batch type is now available called EFT Batch. Use this batch type to create an Electronic Funds Transfer file to submit to your particular bank for processing.
