Multi-wire upload offers the capability to import a batch of wires into Digital Banking from a .csv formatted file instead of inputting the wire information manually. The file can be either for domestic or international wires. There is a standard file format available or you can map required fields to create your own file format. Below are the instructions for uploading files and creating a file format.

File and processing requirements

• The file needs to be in .csv format.
• Domestic and international wires can’t be in the same file.
• The file must contain no more than 100 transactions.
• Click on links to view the specific file specifications for domestic and international wire uploads.
• Symbols: only decimals, period, comma (thousand separator) and a single currency symbol are allowed.
• Wires must be approved in the Activity Center by 4:30PM EST/1:30PM PT. Note: when approving a batch of transactions at once, it may take several minutes to complete.
