Several clients have adopted or trying to adopt this CFP process.
However, it seems like the banks have different upload file structures for the cheques information; some not possible to do in Adagio.
Is anybody dealing with Cheque Fraud Protection process with Adagio?

These clients cannot/ will not switch to EFT in the near future.

Hi Patrica,

I have one client that already had PrintBoss, so we implemented positive pay through them. Another client had GV, so we setup a file in GV to match what the bank wanted. In both cases we're uploading CSV files to US banks. Not sure how different CFP is from positive pay by us.

We've also seen this with our larger clients. I believe that anyone who we have had to set this up for has had gridview, so we have just created a view that matched the file there.

If they don't have gridview, could you create the file using the cheque reconciliation grid from Adagio, export to excel, and then use a macro or a batch file to add the details that you mention are not possible in Adagio?

Patricia:

If you already have GridView then create a GridView that creates the required import file for the bank is a good solution.

Alternatively, you could use PrintBoss's Positive Pay generator. End users will need to engage with their Adagio dealer to have the bank's specific file layout required add as this is not something an end user can do themselves (no end user access).

We do have a client with CIBC that requires a .CSV file and that works.
Other banks are asking files with different record types and they are not even the same formats between different banks.
I know PrintBoss has a positive pay solution. I just wanted to know what other dealers were doing.

Patricia:

I have one Canadian client using PrintBoss Positive Pay.

I don't recall for certain but I'm fairly sure that we implemented GridView for one client.

Most of my clients have moved to EFT.

FWIW - I have about 10 clients using PrintBoss’s Positive Pay feature, and about 5 doing it via GridView.

Both work fine; PrintBoss is smoother, but it’s not worth purchasing just for this feature. All PrintBoss users pay via ACH.
