We are a Canadian company who wants to create USD EFT Payment Transactions. When making CAD payments via the EFT process, we have no issues as multiple transactions a bundled in a single file. We can do a single USD EFT payment with no problems as well. The issue is that when we do multiple USD EFT payments, GP makes a separate file for each vendor. Is there a way to set a configuration so all USD EFT Payment Transactions are bundled in a single file?

Further update. Disabling Addenda's did not work either. There appears to be something specific in the format file itself. Still looking...
Well we set it to Single Format and still ended up with separate files. The only difference is between one EFT file format having Detail Line Addenda checked off or not. When off, it works to one file. When on, it does not. Any further thoughts?
That explains it! I don't understand for the life in me why Microsoft decided to create a separate file per vendor, but I guess it means that literally. If you switch to a single file format, then all payments will be grouped in a single physical file.
Hi Mariano,
Yes we are using file format by vendor however would have thought that it would bundle all like formats together. For example, we have all our payment vendors set to Foreign and ACH IAT for foreign in the Config. Business, Corporate and Personal is set to ACH. If we make 3 Foreign payments, I would have though that we should have got a single file for each format, in this case ACH IAT. It would appear that if we select by vendor, each vendor comes out as a separate file regardless of being the same Foreign Format for all vendors. Should a single file be produced for the same file format for multiple vendors or will we always get a single file for each vendor? Thanks for the prompt reply.
Barry,
Under the Chequebook EFT Payables Options window (Cards > Financial > Chequebook, click on EFT Bank button, click on Payables Options), are you using a single file format or is your file format based on vendor. If the latter, you will need to ensure all USD vendors are using the same file format.
