We are setting up BACs file with new bank, have set up a new cash account in IFS and also a Payment institute

How do I connect these, as I cannot create a BACs file using the new cash account

Hi ​@SMcLees 

You need to connect the BACS payment method to the payment institute of cash account.

This can be done from the Payment Institutes page by selecting the Payment Methods per Payment Institute command/RMB option.

Hi ​@SMcLees 

This issue may occur because you are trying to create a BACS payment order using the HSBC payment institute, but the selected HSBC GBP cash account is not connected to that payment institute.

If this is the correct cash account, please ensure that the BACS payment method is connected to the payment institute associated with the HSBC GBP account.

Otherwise, select a cash account that is connected to the HSBC payment institute.

Best Regards
