ABA Files

Hi Niv , is the ABA file successfully created? 

Do the errors occur on loading the ABA file to your bank?

What are the errors?

Hi there Niv,

What is the error message you've received? You can try to delete the original Electronic payment then go into each individual transaction and make sure there is a statement text. Then recreate the ABA file. Note that both Supplier & Employee cards have a Statement Text field, which should be filled out prior to paying electronically. In addition, for some accounts, you should be selecting the Self-Balancing transaction option, found in the Banking tab of their selected account, generate a new .aba file, and try uploading again. See screenshot below.

Best regards,

Doreen

Hi Niv , have you completed all the information for your company bank account as per the screenshot from Doreen?

The error messages certainly look as though they are referring to an expected ABA format. I would need to see your ABA file to comment further. If you wish, send it to the email address represented by: mike [at] datawise d0t co d0t nz. (I'm an independent MYOB partner).

PS: I forgot to ask, which bank are you uploading the file to?

ComBiz

which email? 

I put it in my first reply today, in non-copyable format "for security". Here it is again:
