What Is NetSuite Electronic Bank Payments?

What Is NetSuite Electronic Bank Payments?

NetSuite Electronic Bank Payments module is a SuiteApp that processes payments for vendor bills, employee expenses, commissions, and customer refunds, and collects payments from customers by direct debit. It creates payment files in each bank's required format, which you then upload to your bank or send through its payment system. Every payment is created from records already in NetSuite, so there is no retyping of bank details or amounts.

The standard version covers the templates for your country of operation. A licensed version adds every supported bank template, custom payment formats, automated batch processing, and multi-currency payments, so you can pay suppliers across countries from a single bank account in one payment run. Both versions include Positive Pay files, which send your bank a record of every check issued so it can be verified before it clears.
