Processing an Account Transfer

Processing an Account Transfer

In this video, you'll learn how to process an account transfer.

Access the Transfers Management workspace from the Payments & Transfers menu. Click the Add Transfer link. Select the Transfer Template option to use a template.

Select the Transfer Type option to create a free-form transfer. For our example, we'll select a Single Transfer, and then click Continue.

Required fields will be noted with a red asterisk.

Choose the From Account and the To Account using the dropdowns.

Enter the Transfer Date. The system will always default to today's date. You can choose a different date by typing over the date or clicking the Calendar icon and selecting one.

Enter the amount of the transfer. If needed, you can also enter a transfer reference and comments.

You can choose to make the transfer a repeating payment by selecting the Make Recurring option.

When making a recurring transfer, set up the recurring pattern by selecting how often the transfer will repeat, when the transfer will be made and when the transfer will stop recurring.

You can adjust the reoccurrence for non-business days as well.

You can also save this transfer as a template for future use by selecting the checkbox and entering a template code and description.

Depending on your company's setup, you may also restrict a template—giving only you or authorized users access to use it. Choose Restrict to use this feature.

When the details of your transfer have been entered, select Submit. You'll see the confirmation appear on the Transfers widget with details of the transfer, and you'll see the transfer you just created in the list view.

If you have permissions to approve your own transfers, you'll see the Approve button in the Actions menu.

If you don't have approve-own permissions, another user with the proper permissions will have to approve it before the transfer can be completed.
