Understanding Automatic Deposit Instructions Entry

You enter automatic deposit instructions for any employee who wants all or part of each payment deposited directly in a bank account. When you enter automatic deposit instructions, the system creates a prenote record that is sent to the bank for verification. The prenote information can be created during the first payroll cycle in which the employee is processed after the automatic deposit instructions are entered into the system, or you can create prenote transactions outside of the payroll cycle.

Using automatic deposit instructions, you can:

  • Set up a combination of automatic deposit, check, or cash payments.

  • Set up multiple bank accounts for an employee.

  • Start and stop automatic deposits by period.

  • Start and stop automatic deposits by date.

  • Set up a remainder code to automatically process any money remaining when an employee chooses different ways to distribute a payment.
