EPFs

Before setting up an electronic payment file (EPF), you will need to work closely with your bank to create a file that contains the following 4 pieces of information. This file must then be given to Tenmast and the information will be available to you during set up of an EPF.

Sequence number that identifies transaction (used for tracking purposes/stops payment from being applied twice).
8 digit account number (sent to bank by Tenmast). This is a unique, identifier number given to each customer.
Payment date (and format is accepted).
Payment amount.

Note: Also, if your bank requires an OCR line, please contact Tenmast with the check digit (if required), as well as the guidelines for how to compute the line. A default OCR line is available on the Standard Statement Coupon, and you can change the ORC line in the Custom Report Writer program.
