Debit
Usage: Amounts in file are all positive, but split into two categories by transaction type: debit or credit.
Required: No
Restrictions: Must map with Credit. Cannot map with Amount or Amount_Reverse_Sign.
Note: This field is rarely used in creating ACH files.
Map Credit and Debit if your data looks similar to Figure 1 (below):
 Figure 1 - Credit and Debit |
In the context of your organization's data, a debit is a transaction that decreases your account balance (for example, issued checks) and a credit increases your account balance (for example, deposit).
In Figure 1, the amount 43.67 will be paid to the account listed. The amount 67.21 will be collected from the account listed.
Credit and Debit must always be mapped as a pair.
If all amounts in your file are positive and in one column, with the sign in a different column, map Amount and Sign.
