What is a Direct Debit template?
New Zealand Direct Debit templates allow you to setup frequently used direct debit instructions to withdraw funds from NZD accounts domiciled in New Zealand and belonging to approved payers. The funds are then deposited into a New Zealand-domiciled NZD account registered in ANZ Transactive Global.
Direct Debits containing between 1 and 100,000 instructions, up to a maximum total value of $99,999,999,999.99.
Once successfully created, you can use the preconfigured template to create your direct debit instructions.
Direct Debit template rules
- Disable Payer changes prevent users from adding or editing any payers when a direct debit is created from a template.
- Fields marked with an asterisk (*) within a template are considered mandatory. Additional information can be added at time of direct debit, including value date, and release time.
- Template Approvals are required if your organisation needs Approval for templates when creating, editing or deleting a template. Once approved, the template can be used to create a direct debit.
- New Payers added to a template may need to be approved before the template can be used to create a direct debit.
