Wire Payment Template Maintenance

 

Using ScotiaConnect, you can enter wire payment instructions quickly and easily using templates.   

The Template Maintenance function enables you to:

·         View/modify templates that you have set up

·         Print a detail or summary report of your templates

·         Add/delete templates

·         Approve templates that have been set up with a pre-approved amount

 

From the Payments menu, select Wire Payments, then click on Template Maintenance to access the Wire Payment Template Maintenance page.

 

You can view the templates that have been set up on ScotiaConnect by pressing the Search button.  To narrow the results, you can search for a template by selecting a Template Status, entering all or part of a Template ID or Beneficiary Name or selecting a Debit Account and clicking on the Search button.

 

Note:  A user will only be able to view templates that have been set up to make payments from the debit accounts that they have been given access to.

By clicking on the appropriate column heading, you can sort the list of templates by Template ID, Template Description, Beneficiary, Debit Account, Pre-Approved Amount or Status.. 

 

A wire payment template will have one of the following statuses:

Entered

The template is to be pre-approved up to the amount specified in the Pre-Approved Amount column, however, the template has not yet been approved.

 

Approval 1

The template is to be pre-approved up to the amount specified in the Pre-Approved Amount column and has received on approval, but must be approved by at least one additional user.

 

Approval 2

The template is to be pre-approved up to the amount specified in the Pre-Approved column and has received two approvals, but must be approved by an additional user.

 

Ready

If a Pre-Approved Amount has been entered for the template, a status of ‘Ready’ means the template has received the required number of approvals.  Any payments created with the template that are within the specified Pre-Approved limit will not require additional approvals before they can be sent to the Bank.

Note:  Payments that exceed the pre-approved limit will require the appropriate number of approvals before they can be sent to the Bank.

If there is not a Pre-Approved Amount entered for the template it will automatically be in ‘Ready’ status. Any payments that are created with the template will require the appropriate number of approvals before they can be sent to the Bank.

 

Note: Only templates in ‘Ready’ status can be used to create payments.

 

You can view/print the details of an individual wire payment template by clicking the Template ID to access the Wire Payment Template Details page.

 

Printing a Detail/Summary Report of Wire Payment Templates

 

You can print a detail or summary report of wire payment templates from the Wire Payment Template Maintenance page.  Templates will be printed in the order they are displayed on the page.  Sort the data in the desired order by clicking on the appropriate column heading.
