On the Bank Feeds (CA205500) form, you can select either AMEX GL1025 (.txt) or AMEX GL1025 (.csv) in the File Format box on the Source File tab. Each file extension is treated as a separate file type with its own predefined parsing rules.

When a bank feed is configured to use one of the GL1025 formats, Acumatica ERP:

• Detects new GL1025 files placed in the connected SFTP folder
• Reads and parses file contents according to the GL1025 specification
• Creates bank transactions for the associated cash account
• Creates expense receipts for the corporate card and employee defined in the bank feed
• Prevents the creation of duplicate transactions by using the external transaction ID
• Supports standard bank feed actions, including test mode loading, manual loading, and sequential processing of multiple files

To set up the functionality of retrieving AMEX GL1025 transactions from a bank feed, do the following:

1. On the Bank Feeds (CA205500) form, create a bank feed, selecting AMEX GL1025 (.txt) or AMEX GL1025 (.csv) as the File Format and entering credentials to the SFTP folder where the bank stores the files.
2. Click Set Up Data Provider. The system creates a new data provider for AMEX files and inserts it in the Data Provider box.
3. Review the mapping rules populated by the system and changes the mapping, if needed. For details, see the Field Mapping section below.
4. On the Cash Accounts tab of the Bank Feeds form, specify the needed bank accounts exactly as they are defined in the imported files and their corresponding cash accounts.
5. Activate the bank feed—changing its status to Active—by clicking Activate on the form toolbar. Now users can start retrieving bank transactions on the Retrieve Bank Feed Transactions (CA507500), Import Bank Transactions (CA306500), or Process Bank Transactions (CA306000) form.

For more details, see To Set Up Bank Feeds Loaded from an AMEX GL1025 File.

You import AMEX statements in GL1025 format, which you select on the Bank Feeds (CA205500) form. Once the system retrieves a new GL1025 file, it parses the file and creates:

• Bank transactions for the cash account mapped to the bank account on the Cash Accounts tab of the Bank Feeds form, while preventing duplicates based on Transaction ID / Ext. Tran ID
• Expense receipts for the corporate card and employee specified in the bank feed setup

On the Source File tab of the Bank Feeds (CA205500) form, fields in Acumatica ERP are mapped to GL1025 fields (see below).

The system applies predefined mapping rules to some fields; these mappings have the Active check box selected. These rules can be edited, if needed. To validate the mapping, you should load transactions by clicking Load in Test Mode on the form toolbar and then review the results. For example, you may need to verify that the bank account is mapped to the correct field if the file contains multiple account levels.

Required mapping of fields

When the system creates transactions, the values in the following fields will be truncated if they exceed the maximum character length allowed in Acumatica ERP.

The values of the following fields won’t be truncated. If the value of a field exceeds the allowed character length, you’ll instead see an error when transactions are retrieved.
