This past w/e we upgraded from 7.20.9 to 7.30.2 and have identified that the addition of the ACH piece for 7.3 is interfering with how we are using the AP System Check module. Right or wrong, we have always created specific AP system check batches using EFT as the payment method to account for AP transactions that are EFT related but not necessarily processed within Sage in that manner. An example is payroll checks that are processed by ADP but need to be accounted for on the AP side within Sage. With 7.2 we were able to do this but with 7.3, we are first being stopped at a point where the vendor record is validated to see if it has a value for Bank Acct# and Routing#. If we fill in dummy entries for those, then we are stopped because MAS500 wants an entry in the Set up ACH table. Everything seems to be forcing us down the path of creating this ACH file when what we really want to do is differentiate the records in the system as being EFT related as opposed to a check payment. The payment method of EFT would appear to be 'hard wired' to this new ACH functionality.
Is anyone aware of a way to 'disconnect' the integration of ACH with version 7.3 other than getting one's hands dirty in the AP posting components?
Thanks in advance for any help.
