Update Prenote Codes
The Update Prenote Codes process automatically changes Prenote Codes to Send Codes for direct deposits when the Prenote Date is reached. The routine also sets the Prenote Codes Update Date. Prenote Codes indicate that direct deposits are in the prenote testing phase. Send Codes indicate the direct deposits are ready for live processing.

Tips:
This process is applicable only if you are using direct deposit.
The program alerts you if you attempt to run Update Prenote Codes out of sequence. For more information about timing, refer to the Payroll Runbook. You can bypass the message if that is your intention.
The program alerts you if you attempt to run Update Prenote Codes more than once. You can bypass the message if your intention is to rerun the update process.
If the transaction code is a Send Code and the Prenote Date is missing or less than 10 days before the Transmission Date, the program uses the PRE-NOTE Table to automatically change the Send Code to a Prenote Code.
The program changes any scheduled deduction amounts in prenote to zero and notifies you of the change. Confirm the amounts on the Payroll Check Edit Register.

Enter the Direct Deposit Transmission Date, which contains the date you plan to transmit the direct deposit file to the bank. (MM/DD/CCYY - Slashes are optional.) Note: The Transmission Date, usually today's date, must be a predetermined number of lead daysbefore the Direct Deposit Effective Date, so the bank has enough lead time to process the transactions. The DD-Days Table controls the number of lead days required (usually two). | |
