The system creates the Malaysia standard MAYH deposit file by using a process that gives you multiple options that control the contents of the file. The process creates a separate MAYH file for each source bank account that is referenced in the processing. The options for the content of a file are:
Net pay only.
Recipient payments only.
Net pay and recipient payments.
Use the Create EFT Payment File MYS (create electronic funds transfer file MYS) page (GPMY_EFT_FILE_RC) to create EFT files.
Enter the parameters for the electronic file creation.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Electronic Funds Transfer page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

An application engine process extracts the salary data from the GP_PAYMENT table and creates the EFT file for transmission to the bank. You can create files for net pay only, recipient payments only, both net pay and recipient payments, or specific deductions.
Note: You must prepare and finalize the banking process (GP_PMT_PREPARE) before you can create the MAYB file. When the MAYB file is created, the system changes the payment status in GP_PAYMENT from F (finalized) to T (transferred).

Selected Recipients: Payments for all deductions for the recipients that you select in the Recipient ID field. |
