3.3 Process the Agency Branch Backdating Limit Setup

This topic provides the instructions to invoke agency branch backdating limit setup screen details.

This fund rule facilitates the maintenance of the back dating limits for a particular transaction type for an agency branch in a fund. The backdating limit applicable for every transaction type can also be specified in the Transaction Processing Rules profile for the fund, but if it is necessary to handle exceptions for a few agency branches for specific transaction types, the same can be maintained here. The information entered here will then supersede the information in the Transaction Processing Rules profile for the fund, and for that agency branch.

To set up the backdating options for a transaction type for a fund, use the Fund Agency BackDating Limit Setup Detail screen.

1. On Home screen, type UTDFALMT in the text box and click Next.
   The Fund Agency BackDating Limit Setup Detail screen is displayed.
