Setting Up Lockbox File Mapping

The Lockbox File Mapping screen allows you to define a mapping for every field in the lockbox file to the LCK_Holding_Master and LCK_Holding_Detail tables. These tables store the uploaded data from the lockbox file, which can then be viewed and corrected before posting.

Files must be a fixed length (not delimited).

If you have a complex file, then you must define a header and footer, including the Record Type Header and the Record Type Detail. For Record Type Header, the following should be set:

· Identifier = H

· Start Position = 1

· End Position = 1

· Change the corresponding mapping of the fields (such as extending it by 1)

For Record Type Detail, the following should be set:

· Identifier = H

· Start Position = 1

· End Position = 1

· Change the mapping of all the fields

To set up the lockbox mapping file:

1. From the toolbar, select Accounting > Lockbox > Lockbox File Mapping.

2. Click Create New Mapping.
The Lockbox File Mapping (LCK001a) screen displays.

3. Enter a Map ID (user-defined alphanumeric value).

4. If this is not a complex file, meaning there is no header or footer, click Add Mapping and Personify will add the Map ID to the Mapping Definition table.

· Fields will only be read by Personify if mapped.

· Extraneous fields do not need to be mapped.

· A header may be required if the Auto Create Batch is being used.

5. If this is a complex file, meaning a header or footer WILL be included, check the Complex File checkbox and click Add Mapping.

a. Select Record Type from the drop-down list.

b. Enter a Record Identifier.
The value used must exist in the file.

c. Enter the Start Position.

d. Enter the End Position.

e. Click Save.
Personify will add the Map ID to the Mapping Definition table.

6. To define lockbox fields provided on the bank file and map them to Personify:

a. Click Add Field Mapping.

b. Enter a Field Name.

c. Select a Target Table from the drop-down.

d. Select a Target Column from the drop-down.

e. Select a Map Type from the drop-down.

f. Enter a Start Position.

g. Enter an End Position.

7. Click Save.

8. From the Lockbox Setup task category, click Validate Setup.

Screen Element	Description
Map ID	Text box. A user-defined alphanumeric value used to help identify the Record Mapping.
Complex File	Checkbox. Identifies whether the Record Mapping has a header or footer.
Mapping Definition
Add Mapping	Button. Adds new mapping to the table.
Delete Mapping	Button. Removes mapping from the table.
Record Type	Drop-down. Displays the type of record the mapping will be. Field is read-only and defaults to Detail if the record is not flagged as a Complex File.
Identifier	Text box. For example, H, D, or F. The value used must exist in the file. The field is read-only if the record is not flagged as a Complex File. The Header line should have a first character of “H” and the detail lines should have a first character of “D.”
Start Position	Text box. This value identifies the start position of the Record Identifier. The field is read-only if the record is not flagged as a Complex File.
End Position	Text box. This value identifies the end position of the Record Identifier. The field is read-only if the record is not flagged as a Complex File.
Field Mapping
Add Field Mapping	Button. Adds a new Field Mapping to the table. A Mapping Definition is required before a Field Mapping can be created.
Delete Field Mapping	Button. Removes a Field Mapping from the table.
Field Name	Text box. Names the lockbox column.
Target Table	Drop-down. Select from either Detail Lockbox (LCK_HOLDING_DETAIL) or Master Lockbox (LCK_HOLDING_MASTER).
Target Column	Drop-down. Defines the column to which the Field Mapping will be sent. As of the 7.2.2 release, the AUTH_REFERENCE column was added. When receipts are processed in lockbox, token information is stored so that if users have access to the merchant account, then they can refund using the AUTH_REFERENCE provided.
Map Type	Drop-down. There are three choices of Map Types: · Column – if the mapping fields are provided on the file, you would select Column and designate a start and end position for the field mapping. · Constant – if a required field is not provided on the file you would need to select Constant and then enter the Constant Value in that text box. For example, if the SUB_CUSTOMER_ID is always “0,” then you would select a Map Type of Constant and enter “0” as the Constant Value in the text box below. · Sequence – if your bank has provided you with a sequence number you would select Sequence. This is generally used for auditing purposes.
Start Position	Text box. The start position of the field on file.
End Position	Text box. The end position of the field on file.
Constant Value	Text box. For Example, Enter the Value as “0” if the SUB_CUSTOMER_ID is not provided.
