  1. In the Bank # entry, open the bank account.

  2. Enter the date of the deposit in the Transaction Date entry (which is normally the check date).

  3. You can select a Crew #, Operator, and/or Department, however these entries are optional.

  4. If you are using a format other than ACH (e.g. there are employees who use a payroll debit card or a combination of payroll debit card and bank account for their direct deposit), select the corresponding option from the Format drop-down menu. If you are not sure which option you should select, please contact Datatech Support for further assistance.

  5. Select your Processing Order, Alphabetic, Entry, or Account #.

  6. If you want the Direct Deposit payments to be finalized, make sure Trial Report is not selected. Then click Print to generate the report.  If you want to generate a preview before finalizing the payments, select Trial Report and click Preview.

Note  When the final report is run by clicking Print, there will no longer be an option to see the Trial Report. The finalized direct deposits will then show up on a current batch Payroll Journal.
