WEBINAR DETAILS

With 70 different return reason codes used by the ACH Network, assigning the most appropriate one can be challenging. Which return reason codes require a WSUD? How many days are there to process a return? What about the return reason codes with unusual timeframes that don’t fall into the standard or extended return timeframes? This session will answer all these questions and more, including an overview of dishonored returns, contested dishonored returns, and returns that are processed by the ACH operator or gateway.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
