How do I set up my bank account to use in Payroll?
Description
In addition to simply connecting a bank account to payroll, you can use these steps in the following situations:
  • If you use multiple Payroll data folders to one Cash Management folder, set up the PR check form in each data folder
  • Enable the Net Pay of my payroll checks to go to a separate cash account in General Ledger
  • You set up a new bank account to use with Payroll direct deposits, but the NACHA file won't generate
