Sorry, I don't normally touch this part of ACH, but I was asked by my bookkeeping department to see if I could help...
Our agreement with our ACH customer's says we need to receive their entries 2 business day prior to effective date. We are wanting to know if the 2 days is a requirement by NACHA or is that time limt set by the bank in their agreement.
For instance, ABC company normally wants their payroll paid out on Friday, so they send us the request on Wednesday. This week, for whatever reason, they sent it on Thursday, and still want payroll paid out on Friday. Are we in violation with NACHA if we still pay it out? Or are we just not doing what our agreement states?
