As an organisation, you will need to send your pay run details over to your bank for processing to make sure the payments go out to your employees. You would typically send these as a BPAY or ABA file, or a combination of both, and your bank will handle the rest of the processing.

This feature allows you to download your pay run as either an ABA file or a BPAY file. You can also download a ZIP file that combines both the ABA and BPAY files together. Before being able to use the download payment file feature, you need to have enabled the following features within your business settings:
