Direct Deposit from multiple accounts? Work around ideas, or can I still do these if I manually send the ACH file?

Posted By Sociusjfuller over 6 years ago

I have a client that wants to use direct deposit to pay hourly employees using one checking account and salary employees from another. It seems like a simple thing to do, but apparently Sage 100 Direct Deposit only lets you enable 1 source account at a time. Does that mean I can only enable one, but have Sage hold the confg files and just toggle between the two? Or will I lose the config information every time I uncheck the enable button? Has anybody gone down this path? It seems like this should be a common thing.

Anybody have any suggestions for a workaround? Is there somebody at Sage in particular that anyone would recommend I speak to?

Have never had a client want two separate ACH accounts before, so I can't tell you from experience.

So you are saying that you can't enable two separate bank accounts for ACH? That's seems odd.

Even if you can, each payroll batch would have to be run under a single bank account - that's a given.

Have you tried making a copy of the company into a test company and try toggling back and forth to see if info is retained? I suspect that it will be retained, but once again this is not from experience.

Unfortunately, it does not retain the info. That feature, along with the "you can't do what you're trying to do" message it posts thinks it may be intentional.

Ahh. You are using the Direct Deposit SERVICE! Not the option where you generate the ACH file and upload it to the bank yourself.

Just experimented and saw the message you were referring to.
