Dynamics GP UK EFT - BACs

Posted on by 750

We are on GP 9.0 & using Albany as BACs payment solutions which is an approved provider for UK BACS payment services. Our Cheque batch posting module is a modified window with custom codes which generates text file for BACS & also posts batch. Now our company has requirement to setup another non-BACS payment, is there any solution readily available via GP inbuilt such as EFT or SafePay or any other provider offer such functionality apart from Albany in UK?

 Thanks

    Hey, not sure if you're still looking but I've actually created these and a few other UK based files. You can find them on the prospr store here.

    Hi All,

    I am aware this is quite an old topic, but we are also currently in process of setting up EFT in GP for UK HSBC, which uses BACS STD 18.

    Does anyone have a file that could share.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Many thanks

    Ian,

    do you have a suggestion on what format to use/modify to meet UK banking requirments.  I have a client that will be processing EFT throught Barclays and I can't seem to find the appropriate format.  do you suggest sthe ISO format?    I tried the user defined format and it will not pull from the open file.  what am I doing wrong?

    thanks

    Ian, you mention that you have partnered up with an EFT processor who takes files from GP and generates the required SEPA formats. Please can you introduce me to this company.

    Hi Denise,

    It varies from bank to bank but in most cases we would use a unique incremental number stored in DUOS.  In turn we expose this using VBA\modifier on the chequebook bank maintenance window.

    You seem to have a working BACS std 18 file format.  I'm wondering which Dynamics GP fields you used for Header Label 1- "Serial Number" &  Batch Header - "File Number" ?  I'm having trouble identifying unique fields in GP that can populate this information.  Any help or suggestions your can provide will be greatly appreciated.

    thank you,

    Denise

    Hi Brian, Yes - we have. Not through GP though. It can be done in GP of course but the authorisation effort required is uneconomical [certainly for us!!]. We have partnered up with an EFT processor who takes files from GP and generates the required SEPA formats. Including Mandate management, issuing UMR's etc - the lot. We can also convert existing bank data etc. The benefits to GP users is that its a much reduced cost and you are guaranteed the SEPA files will be compliant - I've seen examples of where institutions interpret the XML nodes differently etc.

    Ian.

    Hi Ian,

    We are based in Australia. I have a client who is expending into countries Germany, Thailand and South Africa. The banks they are using are Deutsche Bank, Kasikorn Bank and Nedbank respectively in these conuntries.

    I understand that Deutsche Bank can accept SEPA file format. I think the standard GP EFT payment module should be able to generate a SEPA file, right?

    Do you know if the standard GP EFT payment module can generate EFT files for Kasikorn Bank and Dedbank?

    Thanks for the information in advance.

    Kind Regards,

    Susan
