Do the following to set data format values. These values determine how data from ATMs or
POS terminals is interpreted. This information is used to separate the data stream into
individual transactions and separate the various fields within the transaction. Every field format
must match that of the ATM or POS device, especially the month format.
1. Click the Configuration button. Click Data Format & Exceptions. The Data Format &
Exceptions screen appears with the Data Format tab displayed.
2. Use the Format Description pull-down menu to select one of the four data formats you
can customize. The values you enter in the fields on the rest of the screen are then linked
to the format description you selected. This is useful if you want separate formats for
different cash registers or if you want separate formats for cash registers and ATMs.
Click the Edit Format Description button if you want to change the name of your
customized formats. Enter a new name and then click Save to keep the change.
3. In the Monetary Format field, use the pull-down menu to do the following:
a. In the first selection box, enter the monetary symbol ($, for example) to use. Leave this
selection blank if the monetary symbol does not appear in the data to be interpreted.
b. In the second box, select the thousand/hundred separator used in the monetary
value: period or comma. Leave this selection blank if no separator appears in the
data.
c. In the third box, select the decimal separator: period or comma.
To the right of the entry fields, the program displays an example of how your selection
might appear in the data.
4. In the Month Format field, use the pull-down menu to choose how the month will be
displayed: Jan, January, or 01.
5. In the Date Format field, use the pull-down menus to choose the order in which the date
will appear in the transaction. The choices are day (DD), month (MM), and year (YY or
YYYY). Also, select from the provided symbols the separator (for example, hyphen or
slash) to use in the date field. To the right of the entry fields, the program displays an
example of how your selection might appear in the data.
