BKRC - xxCKAMT

Convert "Amount" for Bank Reconciliation File
This is one code of many that builds an upload file for loading a bank statement into the BK Update Bank Statement Info (BKUPBA) page via BK Load Bank Reconciliation File (BKUTLB) utility. The various BKRC common codes help BusinessPLUS read bank records, interpret bank codes, tell BusinessPLUS where in the upload file to read specific details, and more. Additionally, BKUTLB and BKUPBA require the upload file to be bank specific where xx represents a valid bank ID (also known as a CKID or check stock).
BKRC/xxCKAMT is required for use with BKUTLB. Within the upload file, this code indicates the record's value or amount and if the amount has a decimal point.
Create the file and run BKUTLB in trial mode before committing to load a file. Verify the placement of the decimal point. Also verify the system reads the file correctly and fully before proceeding.
