    I would like information on creating a positive pay from payroll.  Specifically, where did you pull the data from?  One suggestion is from the PRCHECK table, another is from the PMTOUT file.  I am in the process of creating this file and would welcome any suggestions.

      Pulling the data from PMTOUT is the easier of the two, since everything is on one record per employee/check/payment, however it's a transient file. In other words if your procedures aren't extremely strict, you could run PR160 twice and overwrite the previous PMTOUT. One way to mitigate that risk is to customize PR160 to call a post-processing script that archives PMTOUT, etc. and then call your positive pay formatting routine.

      Obviously, then, it's safer to use PRCHECK and lookup to the other tables, since those are "permanent" records in the database.
      Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!
