1 This number is for reference purposes only and will not appear in the actual text file.

2 If the file format is tab or semi-colon delimited, any characters over the specified length is cut off at the length limit. If the file format is fixed length (column position) each field must be the exact length shown in the Maximum Field Length column. It cannot be longer or shorter.

3 If the field doesn’t start in the character position specified it will create an error and potentially prohibit the transaction from being imported.

4 This is a required field if Bank Reconciliation is integrated to General Ledger.
