Hi everyone,


We receive 25 rates notices and apart from direct debit each notice the council have advised us we can set up a bpay batch file. Is this possible with reckon 1 hosted as I can't find anything on BPAY

    Hi @flv

    Are you using Reckon One OR Reckon Accounts Hosted ? They’re very different programs 😬

    This is referring to using ABA files. However I believe this is only possible for EFT payments not BPAY, as it requires the Supplier's Bank Name, Branch Code (aka BSB) & Account Number details to be completed in the Supplier's Bank tab record. Note there are no options there for a "BPAY Biller Code" or "Customer Reference", presumably because the Ref No. can either change each bill or is account-specific (rather than Supplier-specific).

    @Rav Can you please confirm? ABA Files - EFT only, not BPAY. Yes ?

    A quick search of the internet, indicates that BPay batches are available via internet banking. I can see three banks, NAB, Bankwest and Bendigo Bank who seem to offer this service. If these are offering it, imagine that most of the other bank players probably do likewise.

    You can also find information at https://www.propertyme.com.au/integrations/bpay-batch where they apparently have a system available to do this as well as providing details of the banks which are supported. It also seems from their website that this seems to cater for exactly what you are looking for.

    @John Graetz Yes, the banks offer it but I'm not sure RA/RAH has the feature within the program as it's missing the required fields 😐️
