Can access to account information and reports be restricted to specific users?

System administrators can customize user access as needed to meet their company’s needs. If a user requires access to only a single account, the administrator can use the user entitlements to enable or disable access.

Can transaction amounts be restricted for specific users?

Yes, transaction limits can be set for specific users for the approval of the payment, template, or transfer and can be set in a variety of ways as noted below. You can assign overall approval limits for a user and limits associated with individual bank accounts assigned to the user. Overall approval limits indicate the maximum value of payments that the user can approve for a transaction, batch or the day. Payments and templates must pass all limit checks in order to be approved.

There are three types of limits: transaction, batch and daily.

  • A transaction approval limit indicates the maximum amount of a single transaction. This limit applies to both wire and batch payments.
  • A batch approval limit is the maximum amount of all items in a batch. This limit is not applicable to wire payments.
  • A daily approval limit is the maximum total value of all payments that can be approved on a given value date.

Furthermore, these limits can be set for all payments of a particular type, e.g., Wire, ACH or they can be further delineated at a more specific level, e.g., Domestic Wire, International Wire.

You can also assign a specific limit to individual templates that indicates the maximum dollar amount that can be used for the template.

Can I make a payment to my loan or line of credit?

Yes, the system will allow you to easily make payments to your loan or line of credit.

Can I make a draw on my line of credit?

Yes. A draw on your line of credit is a feature of BusinessConnect and TreasuryConnect; however, it must be authorized by your Relationship Manager before it will be added to your profile.

Can an alert be set up in BusinessConnect and TreasuryConnect to email users when approval is pending?

Yes, BusinessConnect and TreasuryConnect have the ability to automatically generate an alert to notify identified users when an approval is pending.

In BusinessConnect and TreasuryConnect, if using approval groups, is an automated email sent to all users in that group to alert them of action needed, or does the originator have to let them know?

The BusinessConnect and TreasuryConnect Alert Center Widget allows you to control what alerts are sent and to whom they are sent. The company will select the desired alert and indicate the appropriate recipient(s) or recipient group.

Can I schedule future-dated ACH and Wire transactions?

You can schedule ACH and/or Wire transactions with a value date of approximately 45 days in the future.

Can I save payment information to reuse in the future?

Yes, you can save payment information for future use as described below:

  • Click the "Add a New Template" link in the Payment Center.
  • When originating a payment, check the box labeled "Save this payment as a template for future use."
  • Create a new contact in the Contact Center under the Administration & Settings menu.

Can I create an alert to view ACH Return activity?

Yes, you can set up an alert to notify you when the ACH Return Activity report is available for you to review on the system.

Why is my ACH batch still reflecting an approved status?

An ACH payment will remain in an approved status until First Horizon extracts the payment to the bank’s back office for further processing. The extraction process happens in bank-defined, pre-set processing windows throughout the day. Depending on the time the payment was approved, it may appear that some payments remain in an approved status longer than other payments.

Also, approved future-dated ACH Payments will remain in BusinessConnect or TreasuryConnect until one business day prior to the settlement date.

Can users originate multiple transfers simultaneously?
