Zero Balance Accounting
As your business grows, so does the need for additional accounts. Opening the accounts is the easy part; remembering to make payroll transfers, selecting the correct deposit ticket and keeping your books straight is when it gets tricky.

Zero Balance Accounts (ZBA) are designed to enable businesses to maintain separate disbursement accounts for bookkeeping purposes, while eliminating idle balances and the need to make multiple manual transfers. ZBA consists of one master account and a number of linked disbursement accounts.

Features:

  • Funds are automatically transferred based on your initial instructions
  • Accessible through Internet Banking

Benefits:

  • One time instruction
  • Reduces float and overdrafts
  • Reduces the need for manual transfers
  • Minimizes administrative expense
  • Increases invested funds when used in conjunction with First National’s Overnight Investment program

Electronic Data Interchange is the transfer of non-monetary information electronically from one company to another. This electronic data usually consists of invoice information accompanying an electronic transfer of funds. EDI is used by many industries including health care, auto manufacturing and the Federal Government. Although posting a payment to your account is Standard, many times the EDI information is too large to post on your statement. Upon request, First National will provide you with this information.
