Prior to the last Fred Office Plus updated we were able to import a Payment file via Payment Importer with the date the Direct Debit was to occur. We prepare the Direct Debit file at the beginning of the week, the direct debit then occurs on a set date each month (in our case the 20th), we were able to import this file at preparation and apply to the payments, this ensures the details match what is being direct debited.
The ability to forward date gives us more flexibility when using this feature and ensures that mistakes are not made between creating the file, direct debiting and making the payment. Without this ability staff need to touch the payment file multiple times and this increase the risks of mistakes.
Please reinstate the ability to import a payment file with a future date.
