Nicolet National Bank NACHA file requirements

Nicolet National Bank accepts NACHA-format ACH files through Nicolet treasury management. The bank calls the feature "ACH file origination". Here is what its published documentation requires.

Before you upload, run the file through the free ACH file validator. It checks the structural rules and Nicolet National Bank's documented quirks in your browser; the file never leaves your computer.

How Nicolet National Bank ACH file upload works

Note: Nicolet accepts the FEIN with either a leading blank or a leading 1 in the immediate origin; most banks mandate one.

What to confirm with your Nicolet National Bank treasury contact

Four values are assigned per customer and only the bank can tell you them: your Company ID (often not just your EIN), the exact immediate origin value they expect in the file header, whether your agreement is set up for balanced or unbalanced files, and your cutoff times and settlement option. Get them in writing before the first upload.

Building the file

Most accounting software, including QuickBooks and Sage 50, cannot export a NACHA file directly. If your system exports one and Nicolet National Bank still rejects it, the validator will usually name the exact line and field. If the reason will not yield, the format setup service works it out with you. This software formats and checks files only. It moves no money; funds move solely through your own bank under your agreement with them.
