Direct Deposit

The Direct Deposit screen(s) display(s) the employee's current account information (what already exists in the system), and/or pending account information ("pending" means that you have not yet run the Activate Pending Employee Bank Info utility in Costpoint). Current information can display in either the Current Account Information table or in the Changes to Current Account Information table. Pending information displays only in the Changes to Account Information table. (The pending accounts will replace the current accounts after you have run the Activate Pending Employee Bank Info utility in Costpoint.) The Current Account Information table and the Changes to Current Account Information table act as two different snapshots of your direct deposit information.

The main screen displays the Current Account Information table (showing current/existing account information) and/or the Changes to Current Account Information table (showing either pending account information or current/existing account information).

You can view your direct deposit information, make updates to your existing account information by selecting the Update pushbutton, or make changes/additions to your existing or pending account information by selecting the Add pushbutton. (When employee updates are not allowed, the Update and Add pushbuttons don't display.)
