ACH Universal > Mapping > Deciding What To Map > TEL - Telephone Initiated Entry
The TEL Standard Entry Class code is used to originate a Single Entry debit transaction to a consumer's account based on oral authorization obtained from the consumer over the telephone.
This type of transaction can only be originated when there is either an existing relationship between the Originator and Receiver or when the Receiver initiates the telephone call if a relationship does not previously exist.
Note: Information below assumes you are using a Profile-Based import. If you are not (using Ad Hoc instead), you must also import an account number as ACH_Account and an ABA/Routing Number as ACH_Routing_ABA. The below screenshot uses a name-based lookup to link each entry to a customer, employee, or vendor profile.
The mappings for remaining fields required to use TEL are:
| • | Name as ACH_Name_Internal (Profile Lookup) |
| • | Amount as Amount |
