Two bank accounts for Electronic Payments
Currently we are making Electronics Payments using ABA bank files in AccountRight. Our main bank account is linked already for this purpose.
We now need to pay suppliers from a second bank account as well, therefore we have two operating savings bank accounts that we must be able to make payments from through Electronic Payments.
Can I link two (2) bank accounts for Electronic Payments in AccountRight?
If the method of using ABA bank files does not allow this, could direct payments from a debit card make this work?
Hi Sandor
AccountRight will only allow for one Linked Account for Electronic Payments - typically the Electronic Clearing account.
However, I still think AccountRight can achieve what you are after. Basically, in short, when you mark a transaction as electronic it will place it against the Linked Account for Electronic Payments so it appears in the Prepare Electronic Payments window. You can then tick the transactions off and process them to through to the desired bank account.So, in your case, you want to have a second bank account for paying those electronic payments. As such, when you want to process an electronic payment to the second account, you just want to ensure that account i.e. that second savings account, is selected as the Pay from Account in that Prepare Electronic Payments window when making that payment. You'll also need to ensure you have entered the banking information for that respect bank account in the Accounts>>Accounts Lists>>Select the account -- Banking tab.
