The e-mail that is sent to the user in the e-mail box will receive the file in the FinSwitch Interface layout. |
Click GENERATE REPORT.
A message will confirm that the job has been submitted successfully.
Once the batch run that produces the report has completed, a confirmation e-mail message will be sent to the address that was provided. In addition to this notification e-mail, the application will also send an e-mail with the relevant interface file attached. (This file will be in line with the FinSwitch interface requirements).
Note:
Translation Values must be set-up for investment medium codes where the JSE code is longer than 8 characters (the limit of the investment medium code box).
