Hello Bud Love and thank you for using the Sage forum page for Sage Cloud Payroll.
Can you confirm which Sage application you are using, is it for Sage 50 Payroll? check on your Sage invoice or in the application itself so I can get you to the correct forum group.
Thanks
Yes, it is for Sage 50.
Hi Bud Love ,
Thanks for your question about setting up direct deposit payroll. Did you get an answer for the file size—80 bytes or 1464—that your bank is asking for?
Based on this article, you can check the file size details within your payroll software. Make sure each line of the file has the right details like employee name, cheque date, amount, and bank account number. Files can be 80 bytes, among other sizes. The article includes a list of 16 banks for which EFT files can be automatically formatted.
If you're still unsure, you can contact Sage 50 Accounting Technical Support at 1-888-522-2722 for more guidance.
