About Approving Batch Files

Approval by one or more additional users may be required before batch files can be transmitted to the financial institution's payment processing system.

These rules apply to batch approval:

  • A batch can be approved only by an authorized user who has not uploaded, administered, or previously approved the batch in its current state.
  • You cannot approve an empty batch file, such as one you created for the purpose of moving other transactions into it.
  • Approval limits may be in effect that will limit you from approving uploaded files if the transaction amounts in files exceed the established approval limit.
  • System configuration determines whether or not approvals are required for uploading batch files.
