Payment SFTP result file

After you submit a payment file via Zipalti's FTP path, this result file is placed in Zipalti's SFTP folder to let you know if there were any errors in the upload. The file format is CSV.

If upload is successful, no lines are returned in this file.

The following example shows the result for a payment file that cannot be processed.

example

44,IL456,FALSE,0,Duplicate payee is in the file,'IL456,780,Thanks,'

The SFTP result file name is the name of the submitted payment file followed by "_Result" (e.g., if the submitted file is named "Payments.csv", the result file is named "Payments_Result.csv").
