The system will not process an ACH item for payment or deposit if the company ID, OFI, or amount matches a stop payment item for the member on the ACH Stop Pays dialog box. You can identify ACH items presented for payment by typing Y in the PRS Flag field. If the system attempts to clear an ACH item that has a stop pay record during the back-office cycle, Y appears in the PRS Flag field. The system posts the ACH item to the ACH suspense general ledger account 874400 instead of the member's account.
Portico can automatically charge the member a fee when a stop payment is added. To charge a fee for ACH stop payment processing, the Fee Amount field in the ACH Stop Payments section on the Credit Union Profile – ACH/Payroll tab must specify a fee amount. The Fee GL Account field must contain a valid GL that will be credited when a stop pay fee is collected. The member share type that will be charged the fee can be specified in the Fee Shr field on the ACH Stop Pays dialog box. After the stop-payment record is added in the back-office cycle, the system debits the share type designated on the ACH Stop Pays dialog box for the stop-payment fee amount and credits the general ledger account specified in the Fee GL Account field in the ACH Stop Payments section on the Credit Union Profile – ACH/Payroll tab.
