Hi Colleen Landers ,

Thanks for your question! I noticed your account is set up with Sage 50 with Payroll, so I’ve moved your post here from the Sage Payroll Canada forum so you’ll get the most relevant help.

In Sage 50, payroll payments are typically set up to print as cheques by default. If you’d like to use something like an e-transfer, the most common option is to set up Direct Deposit through Sage 50 Payroll. With Direct Deposit, employee pay is deposited straight to their bank account, removing the need to print cheques.

Here are a couple of resources that may help:

• How to process the Payroll Cheque Run – step-by-step for running payroll cheques.

• How to sign up for Direct Deposit – explains how to enable and use Direct Deposit within Sage 50.

Since e-transfer is not a built-in Sage 50 payroll option, Direct Deposit is usually the best alternative for electronic payments.

If this helps, please mark it as verified :)

Best regards,
Erzsi

Hi

Use ETransfer as cheque number (yellow)

If you have many employees whose total pay amount is withdrawn as a bunch at the bank, une a clearing bank account.

Erszi is right too!
