EFT Info (Non-US) Subtask

Use this subtask of the Manage Vendors screen to add or update Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) information pertaining to your vendors and their banks outside the United States.

You must set up your vendors on the Manage Vendors screen before using this subtask.

Note: You can create only ACH files for International ACH Transactions (IAT) for non-US banks directly in Costpoint. Third-party tools are needed to create other types of EFT files for non-US banks. You may also use the fields in this subtask to store EFT bank information only. Update the information in this subtask as needed.

You must have rights to this screen to add new EFT information or to update an existing vendor's EFT bank information.
