2. Under "Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT)", choose Manage Payments.

Via a DEFR 200 report

If you’re receiving reports electronically, you can confirm the EFT payment status about 30 minutes after the payments file was fully approved. Here’s how:

1. In Online Banking for Business, select the Payments & Receivables tab.
2. Under "File Transfer Facility (FTF)", choose File History.
3. Select “EFT” and “Received Files” then select Search.
4. Look for the DEFR 200 report for your EFT Account ID and the last approval date. It will show you the status of your EFT payment.

Via EFT Alerts

You can set EFT alerts to be automatically notified about the status of your EFT payments files. How to register for Alerts.
