Setup
The Bank Transfers app has been designed so it can be used with a minimum amount of setup. There are a couple of things that need to be in place before you can start to work through the usage scenarios.
Permissions
The Intergen Bank Transfers app permission sets can be seen by going to the Permission Sets page and searching for Bank Transfers.
There is only one permission set for the Bank Transfers app, so assign this permission set to any users that need to work with the app.
Intergen Bank Transfers Setup
If you want to send remittances as an email attachment directly to your payees, you must configure the Email Settings on the Intergen Bank Transfers Setup page.
The emailing of remittances will use your SMTP settings. The value you need to enter in the Email From Address must match the values of the User ID field on the SMTP Mail Setup page.
The following fields are available:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Email From Name | Name to appear as the sender name in the recipient's email |
| Email From Address | Email address that the remittance will be sent from |
Pay-from Bank Accounts
Before you can post to a Bank Account, you must configure Bank Acc. Posting Group. You can find details on how to set up bank accounts in the standard online help for Business Central.
To use a bank account as a pay-from bank account for EFT payments, you must have a Bank Branch No. and Bank Account No. configured with values that indicate which file format is to be used. If you have an Australian bank account in a New Zealand company, you must specify the AUD currency code against the bank account as well as have a correctly formatted bank account. If you are using a New Zealand bank account in a New Zealand company, the currency code must be left blank (to indicate it is using the local currency). Similarly in an Australian company an Australian bank will have a blank currency and a New Zealand bank account will have an NZD currency code.

Vendor
You can pay your vendors in an EFT file without any configuration, but if you want to send a remittance advice through email and you want to use an email address that is different to the vendor's regular Email field, you can configure the Email for Remittance Advice field.
