Generate ACH File

Generates (or re-generates) an ACH text file for each of the record(s) selected. The file(s) can be downloaded and or uploaded to the bank. To help ensure the ACH text files are not rejected by the bank, a warning message will appear if any of the ACH Batches selected contains a "Payment Date" that occurs in the past or on a weekend. This message can be ignored, and the text files will be generated, or the user can use Mass Update to edit the 'Effective Date' to a different date.

Changing the 'Effective Date' only impacts the ACH text file, the 'Payment Date' that was initially used for posting the payments remains the same.
