The plugin uses the Bank File fields when submitting ACH payments to vendors. The instructions below show you how to enter this required information for your existing vendors.

Before you begin, ensure you have permission to edit vendor bank details:

::::WorkflowBlock

Then, select **Subscriptions** on the role you would like to edit. 
:::

Select **Permissions** on the **Accounts Payable** Module, and check all the boxes for **Vendors** (This includes **List**, **View**, **Add**, **Edit**, **Delete,** and **Bank Details**).

:::

::::WorkflowBlockItem
### Add ACH Information

The **ACH Payments **section will appear. Enter the **Routing Number**, **Account Number**, **Account Type**, and **Account Classification**. 

::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/MM6nC_bKbIkwCRqiFZqEu/LCI96z-DOq4NkD8M3jmi4_image.png" size="80" width="768" height="550" caption="Enter ACH Payment Information" position="center" showCaption="true"}

Then, select **Save**. ACH will now be an available payment method for that vendor.

:::hint{type="warning"}
**IMPORTANT:** When you first begin using the plugin, it automatically syncs the vendor's default payment method from the native Intacct record, but only if the method is set to ACH or CHECK. The plugin also ensures this default is synced when you create a new vendor.

In all other cases, the plugin will NOT be syncing the default payment method. If you would like to change the default, follow the previous step, "Set default payment information." This default can also be updated via CSV in a single upload for all your vendors.
