DDCMS Direct introduces a streamlined and secure way to upload BACS payment files directly within the system.

πŸ“ŒNote: Only users with the 'Can Upload' permission will see the 'Upload a New File' button on the right-hand side of the Outgoing Files screen. Users without this permission will not see the button, ensuring secure and role-based access to file submission functionality.

To upload a BACS Standard 18 file into DDCMS Direct, please follow the below steps:

  1. When logged into DDCMS, click the DDCMS Direct tab.

  2. From the left bar, select the Outgoing Files and then click Upload a New File.

  3. From the Select File Type drop down list, select one of the following options:

    • Bacs Standard 18 – Standard format for bulk Bacs payments.

    • Bacs Standard 18 Payment Lines – Includes detailed payment line data.

  4. Click, click to select a file and navigate to the saved file.

  5. Click Upload File.

  6. From the left bar, select the Home to view the status of your file.

DDCMS Direct validates the file when uploaded and checks that the payment file is correctly formatted, includes corrrect bank details, has a processing date and a valid SUN, and uses only one originating account per SUN.
