Performing Multiple ACH Processing

To complete multiple ACH processing, the following must occur:

Define email addresses for ACH orignators and user who runs ACH process
Select ACH files and process them by clicking Build File
Verify processing status
Review system-generated emails
System sends files to SFTP server

Step 1: Before Processing Multiple ACH Files

Perform the following steps before starting multiple ACH processing:

1. Define email addresses for employees who must be notified about ACH processing in the Email addresses for multiple ACH processing panel on the ACH Originators form, which maintains the financial institution information. For example:

2. Note the email address of the user who runs the ACH process because that user also receives an email after the process finishes. For example:

Step 2: Processing Multiple ACH Files

To process multiple ACH files at once:

1. Access the ACH Processing form on the Operations|Action menu. (Note: Click Select All if you want to process multiple files or select individual files.) For example:

2. After selecting all the files you want to process, click Build File. For example:

3. To complete the process, click Yes in the message that displays. For example:

Step 3: Verifying Processing Status

To verify multiple ACH processing status, access the Process Control Dashboard form. For example:

Step 4: Reviewing Email Verifications

The system generates the following emails when multiple ACH processing finishes:

The following example displays the email that the system delivers to the email addresses listed on the ACH Originators form.

Note: The system generates an email for each originator processed. For example, if two files were selected for processing, then two emails are generated.

The following example displays the email that the system delivers to the user who built the files, which includes a summary of the originators that processed and whether they were successful or failed.

Step 5: After Multiple ACH Processing Finishes

Once the process is complete and the emails are generated, the files are sent to the PrismHR SFTP server.

Note: PrismHR is responsible for defining and setting up the SFTP server for clients when processing multiple ACH files.
