1. In Microsoft Dynamics GP, select Cards, point to Financial and select EFT FIle Format.

2. Select the EFT Format ID you want to add the settlement line to.

3. Mark the checkbox for Generate Auto-Settlement for Each Detail.

4. Now unmark the checkbox for Generate Auto-Settlement for Each Detail and you'll be prompted with the message:

   Settlement details exist for this format. Do you want to save or delete the details? Click SAVE.

   (This saves the field mappings for the settlement line, so you get one settlement line per file, instead of per detail line.) You'll then be prompted Settlement details have been saved. Verify that the fields are mapped for a summary settlement line. Select OK.

5. For the Line Type, select the drop-down list and select Settlement. Review the default field mappings for each line and edit as necessary to match your bank's requirements.

6. Select Save.
