Managing Direct Debit Payments

The EFT680 batch process updates scheduled payments and deferred-receipt transactions based on the due date of the scheduled payment. The process collects direct debit payments for scheduled payments that are due and generates a report showing the results.  The EFT680 batch process creates a file containing pre-note and deduction transactions to be sent to the bank. Typically pre-notes are created just once for individuals when their EFT order is established. If their transit number or account number changes, another pre-notification is created.
