Understanding the Reset Process

After you write payments but before you update them, you might need to rewrite them. For example, you might need to rewrite payments because of an error, such as a paper jam, wrong payment number, or wrong payment date.

Before you can rewrite payments, you must reset them. Written payments have a next status of UPD (update).

When you reset payments, you return them to a next status of WRT (write), so you can correct the problem and rewrite them:

  • To undo or reset a payment, you can identify the tape that was affected on the Copy Bank Tape File program (P0457), which you access from the Automatic Payment Processing menu (G0413). This program shows information such as the file ID and the member ID.

  • If you reset payments that were written to a bank tape, you must delete the bank tape record before you can rewrite the payments.
