Sign

Usage: Used when all amount values are absolute and the sign of the amount is located in a separate field

Required: No

Restrictions: None

Sign is used when all amount values in a source file are absolute, but they are both credits and debits.  The sign of the data (or transaction type, credit or debit) is represented in a separate field called the sign field. 

For example, in Figure 1 (below), the first column would be mapped as ACH_Name_Internal (Profile Lookup), second column as Amount, and third column as Sign.  DR indicates a debit transaction and CR represents a credit transaction.

See Changing debit and credit text to modify the credit and debit indicators to your data.
