INTRODUCTION TO VIEWING THE SKILMATCH LOCKBOX CASH RECEIPT FILE FOR ERROR ANALYSIS

 

This option allows you to view (on your screen, not as a report in your outq) the contents of the lockbox file (after it has been retrieved from the bank and uploaded from the PC to the AS/400) for error analysis.  You will view the file in the bank-specific file format (before it has been converted to the SkilMatch-standard file format).

 

If errors are found in your Preliminary Edit of xxx Lockbox, viewing this file might prove helpful as you interface with your bank.  It may also be necessary to interface with SkilMatch to resolve the problem (bank may have changed their format, etc.).
