In the upper portion of the screen, communications configuration mirrors the previously defined Positive Pay Application. The bottom portion of the screen allows for one or more applications to be listed.
The resulting transmission file created from the form set extraction process generates check information in the same order as the positive pay entries were entered into the list itself.
Note that the Transmit Library/File defined for the set should not have the same name as that defined for the constituent applications. The Positive Pay Set will populate each constituent file and then copy all of the records to the Pay Set's consolidated transmission file.
At this point, however, the positive pay set has not been adapted to use FTP for transmission, and is limited to modem transmission.
