How to Export EFTs

This guide outlines the process of exporting EFT payments into a batch file for upload to the bank and ensuring vendors receive an emailed Payment Advice.

Accessing EFT Payments

The bank account dashboard tile in the Accounting Dashboard provides quick links to EFTs that need to be uploaded. EFTs start as regular payments, which must be grouped into a batch for export and upload.

1. On the dashboard tile, click EFT to Transmit.
2. A list of payments that need to be sent will appear.
3. Use the checkboxes to select the EFTs to batch together (you can mix payments to various vendors).

Creating a Batch Payment

1. In the Action Menu, click Create Batch Payment.
2. Odoo will generate a batch payment document.
3. Click the Validate button.

Downloading and Uploading the EFT File

1. A dialog will appear with a link to download the EFT file for upload to the bank.
2. Click the link to download the file to your Downloads folder.
3. Once downloaded, click Close.

Sending Payment Advice to Vendors

1. Click the Send Payment Advice button to email vendors.
2. If there are many vendors, this may take a few minutes.
3. Once successful, a green notification will appear in the upper right corner stating: Advice Sent.

Uploading the EFT File to the Bank

• Upload the EFT file to the bank via online banking.

Note: If the EFT file was not downloaded or needs to be re-generated, click Re-Generate Export File to obtain a new file.
