How to Send a Payment by ACH to a Vendor
Paying vendors by ach through your Rentec Direct property management software is as easy as posting a check, and funds are delivered more quickly.
Once a payment has been sent to a vendor, they will receive an email notifying them of the incoming payment, including the sender's details, amount, reference number, and memo automatically. This will help vendors identify the payment and post it correctly to the applicable invoice or account.
