When you delete an ACH record, the system updates the appropriate counter information.

If the member's number is changed using the Member Number Change dialog box, the system displays the message MEMBER NUMBER NOT FOUND on the old ACH Exception/Return History tab. You can access the new ACH Exception/Return History tab immediately, but the history will not appear until after the next back-office cycle. The message MEMBER NUMBER CHANGED FROM XXXXXXXXX on MMDDYY appears on the old ACH Exception/Return History tab.

If you have deleted an ACH record in error, you can use the Reversals - Same-Day Reversals By CAN tab to correct it on the same day. If you deleted an ACH record in error on a prior day, you cannot correct the information.
