Purpose

Define valid bank accounts for customers.

Overview

Use Customer Bank Account Maintenance to define valid bank accounts used for importing deposit information in Deposit Entry, and for exporting direct debit files. Bank accounts are used to cross-reference to paying customers since this is the information that bank lockboxes provide electronically.

For database information for this window, see Customer Bank Account Maintenance Database Information.

You can also import customer bank accounts in Customer Bank Account Import.
