Overview
The ability to pay different employees from different Employer Bank Accounts has been added to AUS Payroll. This generally means that executives are paid from a separate company bank account.
Configuration
A PR parameter has been added to the Payroll Module to allow for different banks for processing.
Parameter | Description |
BNKONCHK | Comma-separated list of banks that could be selected on cheques. |
EFT Output and Print
A Use Bank Account on Timesheet tickbox is found on the EFT Output and Print screen. This box is ticked by default (see EFT Output and Print (Box ticked)). If it is unticked, a From Bank Account combo box appears (see EFT Output and Print (Box unticked)), which shows the Company Bank Accounts configured against PR parameter BNKONCHK.

When a Bank code from this combo is selected, all of the timesheet Bank Accounts are updated with that code. When the EFT process is run, this Bank code is found in the From Bank Account field.
If the BACSFILE parameter does not have [IBANBANK] in its filename, the Use Bank Account on Timesheet and From Bank Account fields discussed above are not shown. Instead, the From Bank Account code set in the PR/CASHBANK parameter is used.
Timesheet
The Payroll Bank code of the Employee defaults onto the timesheet. That code can be changed to any of the allowable Bank codes. If a Payroll Bank code is not set, the value against PR parameter CASHBANK is used on the timesheet.
Bank Code is available in the column sets.
Change Timesheet Bank Code
The Change Timesheet Bank Code function allows you to change the Bank code used on timesheets to another Bank code. This is generally used when there is a large number of timesheets and a multi update in Timesheets is not possible.
Menu Item
A Change Timesheet Bank Code menu option is available in Payroll > [Frequency] > Maintenance, as shown in Menu Item.
