Create Direct Deposit File USA Page

GPUS_PPD_RC

Create the PPD file for direct deposits.

You use the Create Direct Deposit File USA page to define the parameters for the direct deposit file and to run the direct deposit file process.

The direct deposit file is formatted according to the EFT format specified for the source bank of the pay entity, which is in the PPD format.

During the direct deposit file process, the system performs these steps:

  1. Gets data from the GP_PAYMENT and GP_PYMT_BNK_TBL tables.

    The GP_PAYMENT table is the base from which a company pays its payees. This table contains one entry for every net pay distribution from every payment included in a calendar run. Another table used for payment processing is GP_PYMT_BNK_TBL. This table contains summary information for a payee's net pay.

  2. Runs the PPD EFT process.

  3. Creates the PPD001.txt file to be submitted to NACHA.

Note: If you select data that includes multiple source banks, multiple PPD files are created, one PPD file for each source bank. The PPD files are named PPD001.TXT, PPD002.TXT, and so forth.
