Copy/Merge ACH Distribution Records

These steps explain how to copy all ACH distribution information from one company into another in situations where a company begins transmitting using a different company name and ID. This eliminates manual re-keying of distribution details.

  • This action copies all member distribution information (depositor account numbers, distribution codes, sequence numbers, etc.) from the old company ID into the new company ID.

  • The new company ID will need to be added prior to the copy/merge. Follow steps to set up an ACH record.

  • After performing the steps below, when you go into the new company, you’ll see the new transfers and posting account numbers.

  • To view the records that show the results of the Copy/Merge function, look for records with the wording “DEPOSITOR DELETED” in the Daily File Maintenance Report (LELOG2).
