Emailing Remittance Advice:
Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) has made paying suppliers and contractors so much easier and cheaper. However there is still a need to send them some form of remittance so that they know you've sent them the money.
Databuild supports three separate EFT remittance systems:
Printed Remmittance (which can then be mailed or faxed)
A remittance layout must be set in Cheque/Remittances
Email address must be setup for each supplier in Supplier/Detail or in Payments
The format of the email is set by the system, however, if you have a system standard note called "SEFTS", "SEFTMH", "SEFTMF it will be used to format the subject, message header, and message footer respectively of the Email. The same special fields set in remittance layouts are replaced by their relevant values
SMS
Mobile Phone Number must be setup for each supplier in Suppliers/Addresses
The format of the SMS is set by the system, however, if you have a standard note called "SEFTSMS", it will be used to format the SMS. The same special fields set in remittance layouts are replaced by their relevant values. Bear in mind however, that the maximum length of any SMS is 160 characters
