EFT options  
Output EFT payments to XML format

Enables the EFT Payments Extract and EFT Payments Re-extract programs to create an XML file containing all the relevant EFT details for the extract.

This file will include supplier, beneficiary and bank information and can be used by a third party software developer to extract the information into the file format required by your bank.

This only applies when running SYSPRO in a client/server environment.

Notes and warnings

Deletion considerations

  • You cannot delete EFT control information for a bank if there are any EFT transactions in progress against the bank.

Custom form

  • A custom form containing extra information (e.g. relating to a batch of payments) can be created for each bank. If you select to create an XML file, then any information captured in a custom form is output to the XML file.

Application Help Pane

Application Help Panes provide step-by-step instructions for various functions within the program, including a brief overview of what the program does, what setup options are required and how to personalize the program.

You can embed an Application Help Pane:

  • in the main SYSPRO menu

  • in any program with panes, if not using roles

  • when adding a role layout in Design Mode.
