General step
The page displays general information about the endpoint or sidepoint.
The ID of the selected endpoint or sidepoint is displayed in the title of the page.
This step has the following fields. Required fields are indicated with an asterisk.
- Endpoint ID *
- The identifier for the endpoint or sidepoint. It must be unique and can be up to 10 characters long.
- Participant ID
- The ID of the participant.
- Replication endpoint *
- The endpoint to which the work is replicated after the outbound transmission is closed. Only endpoints that are active at the time that this endpoint becomes effective can be selected as a replication endpoint for this endpoint.
- Outbound product
- Associates a building option, billing, and accounting information to the endpoint. Select an outbound product from the list of the outbound product codes. If an outbound product is selected, a transmission definition must be provided. In addition, services can be added to the endpoint by using the services step.
- Item grouping
- The name of the grouping to use for this endpoint. A grouping defines the work that the endpoint receives.
- Returns indicator
- The value to use as the returns indicator for this endpoint. This field can contain the following values:
- E
- Administrative
- R
- Customer/Monetary
- J
- Reject
- On us
- Indicates whether the endpoint can be assigned to on-us transactions. On-us endpoints are intended to be assigned to received transactions that are drawn on an account at the same bank as the one processing the transaction.
- Null file required
- Indicates whether a null transmission is sent when a scheduled delivery has no transactions.
- Bill to original
- If this field is set to yes, the original endpoint is billed for the services.
- Usage indicator *
- Indicates how this endpoint is used. Valid values for this field are shown in the following list.
- Endpoint - this endpoint is an endpoint only.
- Sidepoint - this endpoint is a sidepoint only.
- Both - this endpoint is both an endpoint and a sidepoint.
- Transmission definition *
- The name of the default transmission definition associated with the endpoint. This transmission definition is used unless it is overridden by the transaction. Select from the list of transmission definitions.
- Building option
- The name of the building option to which the endpoint is assigned. If an outbound product was selected for this endpoint, the value in this field overrides the building option from that outbound product. Select from the list of building options.
- Collection type
- The collection type for this endpoint. It is a code that identifies the type of cash letter. The collection type is used when the outbound X9 type 10 record is created. Select from the list of collection types.
- Work type
- The work type for this endpoint. It is a code that specifies the work type. The work type is used when the outbound X9 type 10 record is created. Select from the list of work types.
- Destination routing transit
- Identifies the institution that receives and processes the batch (ICL) or segment. This field is used when
the destination field in the outbound batch (ICL) header is created.Routing transit numbers must be numeric and 9 digits long. It must be in one of the following formats:
- Nine digits, including a check digit. If 9 digits are entered, the modulus check usually passes.
- Five numbers, a dash, then three numbers. This format is usually used for Canada.
- Return routing transit
- The routing transit number of the sending bank or financial institution.Routing transit numbers must be numeric and 9 digits long. It must be in one of the following formats:
- Nine digits, including a check digit. If 9 digits are entered, the modulus check usually passes.
- Five numbers, a dash, then three numbers. This format is usually used for Canada.
- Originator routing transit
- This field is an optional field that can contain a routing transit number. The value that is entered in
this field might be used in the header. The routing attributes that are defined are searched, and the first
valid routing number that is found is used for the header value.For type 01 records, the attributes are searched in this order:
- Sender routing transit attribute from the manage transmission definitions page.
- Routing number attribute from the manage banks page.
- The routing transit number specified in this field.
- Sender routing transit attribute from the manage transmission definitions page.
- Routing number attribute from the manage banks page.
- Null File Attributes
- This field is shown only when the null file required field indicates that null transmissions are to be
sent for this endpoint or sidepoint. It has the following subfields.
- Message Standard *
- The message standard to use for any null transmissions that are created and sent. This field is active only when an FTM Workflow transmission definition is selected for the endpoint or sidepoint.
- Processing window (Opt-Out)
- No null transmissions are created and sent for the processing windows in this field. The different endpoints for a participant can receive different sets of null transmissions when you opt out of some of the processing windows for an endpoint. By default, null transmissions are created for all of the processing windows for an endpoint.
