ACH FSM Payment Output File customization

shschul

Hello - we are in the process of transitioning from S3 to MT. We found out recently that the ACH Payment Output file does not meet the NACHA standards and has 3 additional lines added to the file (rows 1-2 and the last row). All of these lines start with alpha characters. The response we have received from Infor is that this is the standard ACH and we will need to create a customized flow to change the standard output. 

I'm curious if all other customers have had to create a customized flow to change their ACH since the file does not meet NACHA requirements or have you not had any need to create a customization for these ACH payment output files?

Wondering why Infor's ACH has these three lines added - doesn't meet national standards, but maybe others have not had an issue with processing of these files.

Please let me know if you have experience with these ACH files and a need/no need to customize.

Thank you!

We have not changed the output file from S3 to FSM. I think you are getting header and trailing labels created on your output files. This is controlled on the “Create Labels” field on the Output Options on the form. Is it set to Yes? You can set the Create Labels field to “No” and you will not get the unwanted lines. You can set up “Payment Creation Defaults” so you don’t need to remember to set that flag every time.
