In Netsuite, you have the option to install an additional Suite App Bundle named “Electronic Bank Payments” (id 339110). This bundle is also often named “EFT module” or “Batch payments”. The bundle allows the user to create payment batches or direct payment debit batches that can be imported directly into your online bank portal by hand or with the use of the Fast Four SFTP Connector. In most situations, the bank will process the Batch as one line on the bank statement, but it can happen that the bank provides feedback with individual lines. Often it's possible to change the behavior by editing a particular parameter in the “Payment File Template”. We recommend contacting your bank for more information if needed. In this documentation, we will provide the best practices for both situations.
