ACH File Delivery Methods Available
|
Diskettes
Diskettes must be delivered to the ACH Processors (Accounting Department) located at
300 W. Patti Page Blvd. in Claremore. If necessary, the bank may be able to make special
arrangements where the diskettes or tapes may be delivered to any branch location, and internal
bank couriers deliver them to ACH Processors.
Binary Synchronous Communications
Binary Synchronous transmissions are handled on an individual basis. Prior
arrangements must be completed and appropriate programming and parameters
will be determined on an individual basis.
File Prefix / File Name
All file names submitted to RCB Bank should start with the assigned File Prefix,
followed by the current date (MMDDYY) and a proper file extension. File extensions
should reflect the kind of data in the file. Example:
File not compressed being submitted on 06/01/2001 would be named CL060101.DAT
File compressed with WinZip submitted on 06/01/2001, would be named CL060101.ZIP
Prenote Transactions
A prenote transaction (transaction code 23, 28, 33, or 38) is a non-dollar entry
sent through the ACH network. It conveys the same information (with the exception
of the dollar amount and transaction code) that will be carried on subsequent entries.
The prenotification process helps to ensure that subsequent entries are posted appropriately.
This prenote transaction may be originated at any time, however, live dollar entries can not
occur until 6 banking days after the effective entry date of the prenote. The prenote must
carry an appropriate effective entry date to be processed through the system, it is not the
date of the first live entry. EXAMPLE: A prenote transaction is created on June 5th
with the effective entry date of June 6nd. A live transaction can begin no sooner
than an Effective Entry Date of June 14th. If any of the bank data (routing number
or account number) should change, the new data must go through the prenotification process.
