[PR] When can you generate a Prenote file for Payroll

Created by Crystal Ann Harvey, Modified on Thu, 28 Aug at 10:08 AM by Crystal Ann Harvey

A prenote file may be generated and sent to your bank at any point after setting up the information in the Employee Master on the Direct Deposit tab and denoting Pre-Note with the radio button.  

Generating the Prenote file does not require you to have an open pay period, as the information generated is for the bank to confirm the accuracy of the banking information for the Employee only.

There are no dollar values associated with the file.

After acceptance by the bank, change the radio button to Active to process EFT payments on the next payroll.


  1. Go to EFT Payments
  2. Go to Download Tab
  3. Select Prenote option
  4. Enter/Select Effective Date
  5. Click "Continue" button
  6. Name/Save file
  7. Submit file to bank
