After initial configuration, each instance of the Check Writer process starts with the loading of a Check Writer file by the CW Table Load process. The file has three required components, with an additional fourth component that is conditionally required when making EFT payments to generate addendum records. These components of the file are documented below and are loaded to the four pages covered in the Inquiries section: Check Writer Header, Payment, Accounting and ACH Addendum.
Fields not specified in the file will default based on the corresponding Check Writer Options setting or will default as defined on the table loaded.
