    Pick one of the standard EFT data exchange definitions and begin to edit from there.

    If you have already started a new definition copy the codeunit units, tables, etc from one of the provided definitions.

    Hi Again,

    I have created an EFT file using default definition available on CRONUS USA company. I have few queries on that.

    1. How to bring space in first row between priority code (Blue color box) and Immediate Destination (Orange color box).

    2. For last  5 rows, I am seeing continuous '9's. Is it normal? If not how to restrict it?

    Hi Kim,

    Thank you for your guidance.

    As per your suggestion, I tried justification option to create a gap between routing number. But it's not creating a space.

    My desired result should look like below.

    Check the box for Text Pad Character Required, see if that helps.

    Hi Jaunt,

    Just put a space in pad character field. If you highlight the box you will see it is holding the space you entered if it looks like this
