Step 4—Generate the direct deposit file and report

Generate direct deposit files and a detail report. Members with a direct deposit payment status are included in the pre-check report, but won't have a check printed. After printing the checks, run the direct deposit file and report.

Note: This is the only report that provides direct deposit-specific totals.

Go to: Home > Administration Processes > Annuity > Direct Deposit File Maintenance

The Direct Deposit Tape screen displays the direct deposit runs created by the check print process.
