Institution Settings 

The following settings are available to your institution in the Admin Platform under Institution Settings. 

• ACH Cutoff Time – The cutoff time used for automated NACHA file generation if SFTP is configured. The value must be a whole integer which represents the start of the hour in your institution's timezone. The cutoff time applies to both Account Opening and Digital Banking transactions for institutions that use both products.
• Max Funding Amount via ACH – The maximum amount an applicant can deposit via ACH. The default value is $10,000. 
• Microbilt Decline Behavior – For ACH funding, Microbilt can return one of three recommendations—approved, warning, and decline. This setting determines how to handle transactions that are declined by Microbilt, either "REVIEW" to send the transaction to manual review or "REJECT" to automatically reject the transaction. Transactions that return a warning are automatically sent to manual review.
• Maximum Funding Attempts Per Application – The maximum number of times an application can accept funding. For transactions that return a Microbilt status of Warning and/or Decline (depending on the "Microbilt Decline Behavior" setting above), staff users will have to decide whether to approve or reject them. If a transaction is rejected and the applicant has funding attempts remaining, the application goes into "Funding Failed" status, and they receive an email prompting them to re-enter their funding information. Doing so will trigger a new transaction. If a transaction is rejected and the applicant has no remaining funding attempts, their application is rejected, goes into "Max Funding Attempts Reached" status, and they receive an email notification. Each funding attempt gets added to a single total, even if a user switches between ACH and card funding.
