# BACS Pre-Notify

Prenotification files are used to prepare automated currency exchanges with banks. Typically, a prenotification file is sent to a bank to verify that all of the bank and account information is correct before transactions are sent. This option generates a prenotification file in Bankers Automated Clearing Services (BACS) format that is used to verify carrier/dealer account information before submitting direct deposits.

#### To generate a prenotification file:

* Select BACS Pre-Notify from the Account Payments menu to display the BACS Prenotification window.
