# Canada - Payroll EFT (CPA Standard 005)
## Company setup (one time)
On the company form, open Canadian Payroll EFT and configure: - Bank EFT Format (all major Canadian formats supported; default is RBC) - CPA Originator ID, short/long originator names - Originator bank routing (institution/transit/account) and destination data centre - EFT Bank Journal and optional Net Pay Clearing Account (defaults to account 2380 if left empty)
## Employee setup
On each employee payroll settings, set: - Pay Method (Direct Deposit (EFT), Paper Cheque, Cash) - If EFT: Institution / Transit / Account
Employees with non-EFT pay methods are skipped when generating EFT files.
## Payroll workflow
- Confirm payroll batch (hr.payslip.run) to closed state.
- Click Generate EFT File.
- Choose settlement date and options (mark payslips paid, create bulk payment).
- Download generated .txt CPA 005 file and upload to bank portal.
- Payslips can be auto-set to Paid, and a bulk account.payment is posted against the bank journal and clearing account 2380.
## Bank format notes
Supported dialects: - RBC Royal Bank (ACH 1464) - TD Canada Trust (ACS 1464) - BMO Bank of Montreal (Direct 1464) - Scotiabank (ScotiaConnect 1464) - CIBC (1464) - National Bank of Canada (1464) - Desjardins (AFT 1464) - Generic CPA 005 (1464)
All formats use CPA Standard 005 fixed-width 1464-byte records with format-specific overrides handled via bank-format dispatch.
## Production warning
Always validate your first generated file with your bank's published EFT/CPA 005 specification PDF before production use. Bank-side file rejection is the most common go-live issue.
