How Much Does NetSuite Electronic Bank Payments Cost?

  • Electronic Bank Payments is included with NetSuite platform license for single-country payments. Advanced license required for multi-country, multi-currency, and custom templates. 

    But the real cost isn't the license—it's the staff time manually creating bank files, the payment errors from format mistakes, and the check printing and postage costs.

Why Choose Stockton10?

Bank format templates broke
Banking standards updated (SEPA 2019, NACHA updates). Payment files rejected by bank. Templates never updated. We maintain current bank format templates.
Payment approval workflows bypassed
Built approval routing. Payments processed without approvals because workflow too slow. We optimize approval workflows for speed.
Multi-currency exchange rates wrong
Exchange rates don't match bank rates. Reconciliation requires manual adjustments every payment run. We configure exchange rate synchronization.
Direct debit collections never enabled
Paid for EBP to automate collections. Collections still manual because direct debit setup was too complex. We implement direct debit properly.
Payment batches process incorrectly
Bills grouped wrong. Single payment per vendor splits across multiple payments. Batch criteria misconfigured. We fix batch logic.
Positive Pay files not generated
Enabled Positive Pay for fraud prevention. Finance forgets to generate files. Checks presented without bank verification. We automate Positive Pay generation.

Challenges NetSuite Electronic Bank Payments Solves

The Problem
How Fixed Assets Management fixes it
  • Manual bank file creation
green check icon
Creating ACH or wire files manually in spreadsheets or bank software is slow and error-prone. EBP generates files automatically from NetSuite.
  • Payment format errors

Manual file creation creates format errors causing bank rejections. Bank-specific templates ensure correct formatting.
  • Disconnected banking and ERP systems
lets icon check fill
Exporting payment data to separate banking systems creates duplicate entry. EBP generates files directly from NetSuite payments.
  • Slow international payment processing
lets icon check fill
Processing payments to multiple countries separately is slow. Multi-currency batch processing handles global payments in single run.
  • Check printing costs
lets icon check fill
Printing, signing, and mailing checks is expensive. Electronic payments reduce processing costs.
  • No payment approval controls

Payments processed without proper authorization. Approval routing enforces authorization levels.
