PR19.1 - File Concatenation

Use PR19.1 (ACH Tape Concatenation) to combine multiple  ACH tape files into
one ACH tape file. You create ACH tape files on PR160 (Payment Print).

IMPORTANT
Contact your financial institution before using this feature. You need to
make sure your financial institution can accept this type of tape.

PR19.1 edits the input tape file names. If there are any errors, the Payroll
system creates an error message pointing to the bad path/file name.

The system combines the input ACH files into one file. The output file
contains multiple batches (from the multiple ACH files). Each batch contains a
header record, a company batch header, detail, batch control record and the
file control for the end of the file. All input tape files are unchanged
whether the concatenation is successful or not. You will have to manually
delete any input ACH files if you want to remove them after a successful
concatenation.

If you do not enter a full path for the output file, the system puts the file
in  the current directory where the program is run from.
