We are in the process of migrating from TA to Absence Management. During this process we found that we need to use the PMTOUT file to generate checks intead of the process we are currently using under TA. This morning we found out the data file that we previously used to create direct deposit receipts does not have data in it either. It looks like we need to use the PMTOUT file for both check creation and direct deposit receipts. Is there a flag in the PMTOUT file that differentiates between an employee who gets a direct deposit receipt and an employee who gets a check printed? Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated.

There is a field called CHECK-TYPE in the layout of PMTOUT. Have you explored that ?
Assuming this field is consistent across the application, I would guess this field will be populated as

A = ACH Receipt
D = Deposit
I = Interest
J = Adjustment
M = Manual Payment
P = Partial ACH
S = System Payment
W = Withdrawal

the check type character is in position 44 of the PMTOUT file in 9.0.0 apps. The characters are A for Direct deposit, P for Partial DD and S for system check. It is my understanding the the PMTOUT file will change dramatically in 9.0.1.

For each payment, the PMTOUT file contains a total ACH amount field (i.e. net amount of all ACH accounts/transactions for the payment--employee could have payment spread across multiple accounts), as well as a block segment that contains details for each (up to 9) ACH distribution.

Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!

How do I control and get the TA Leave Balances to show up on the PMTOUT file?
Thanks, Joe...

Do you meant TA or LP? For LP - you need to enable it on the payroll rule and set the Print Accrual Flag on the PR160 =Y.
