Banner 9 - Changing Direct Deposit Information for Employees

This guide explains how to change your direct deposit information using Banner 9 for employee users. Employees can access the Direct Deposit page quickly through myEOL and Banner 9’s My Profile section.

You can update your Accounts Payable Deposit and Proposed Pay Distribution information through Banner 9. Please note:

• Students may have only one Accounts Payable Deposit on file at a time.
• Employees may have only two Proposed Pay Distribution accounts at a time.

To add a new deposit or distribution, you may need to edit an allocation or delete an existing account if you already have two on file. If you have only one, you can simply add the new account.

Disclaimer:
Employees are responsible for ensuring that any changes to their Accounts Payable Deposit (Travel Reimbursements) and Proposed Pay Distribution (Payroll disbursements) information are submitted on or before the 15th of each month. Failure to do so may result in a check issued and mailed to current address on file or an Automated Clearing House (ACH) Return to be reissued with 15 days of the return. The university is not responsible for any delays or misdirected deposits resulting from late or inaccurate updates.

Which Direct Deposit Option Should I Use?

Employees should use Proposed Pay Distribution – this is used for receiving your payroll disbursements.

Inside the Direct Deposit Allocation Page

When you open the Direct Deposit page, you will see up to three sections, depending on your role and position:

Pay Distribution

This section shows your current active direct deposit account where your paycheck is sent. 

Proposed Pay Distribution 

This is used by employees to receive their payroll disbursements. It shows how your direct deposit will be applied to your next paycheck based on the current setup. You can only have two accounts for paycheck deposits. To add a new direct deposit account, you may need to edit allocations or delete an existing one if you already have two on file. If you have only one, you can simply add the new account.

How Employees Set Up or Edit Their Direct Deposit Information

First, check your Pay Distribution section to see if your direct deposit is already set up. If no direct deposit is configured, a notification message will appear in that section.

To add a new direct deposit:

1. Click the Add New button located at the upper right corner of the Proposed Pay Distribution section.
2. If you already have an account set up in the selected section, you will see a message stating that the maximum number of accounts has been reached. In this case, you must delete or edit the existing banking information before adding a new one (see screenshot below).

When you click the Add New button, a screen will appear prompting you to add an account for Proposed Pay Distribution, depending on which section’s button you selected.

You may have two options:

• Create from existing account information
• Create new account

Create new account

When you're setting up direct deposit or making electronic payments, you'll often be asked for your routing number and check number.

Here’s how to find them on a standard personal check. At the bottom of your check, you’ll see a row of numbers. These typically include:

1. Routing Number (9 digits)

• Location: Bottom-left corner
• Purpose: Identifies the financial institution
• Tip: Always 9 digits; if yours isn't, double-check

2. Account Number

• Location: To the right of the routing number
• Purpose: Identifies your specific bank account
• Note: This number may vary in length

Fill out the required fields, then click Save New Deposit to complete the process.

Important Disclaimer

If you do not have a physical check, please contact your financial institution or log in to your online banking account to obtain your routing and account numbers. Do not guess or assume this information from online sources.

⚠️ Do not enter your debit or credit card number.
These are not your banking details and cannot be used for direct deposit or ACH electronic payments.

Entering incorrect banking information may result in:

• Delayed deposits and ACH Returns.
• Funds being sent to the wrong account and may not be recoverable from the financial institution.
• Additional processing time to reissue misdirected payments.

To avoid any disruptions, always verify your banking details with your bank before submitting them.

To edit an existing direct deposit entry:

1. Make the necessary changes to the entry (e.g., update Account Type or Amount).
2. Check the box next to the bank account entry.
3. Read and acknowledge the disclaimer at the bottom of the screen.
4. Click Save Changes to update your information (see screenshot below for Steps 2–4).

How to Delete an Existing Proposed Pay Distribution

1. Check the box next to the direct deposit entry you want to delete.
2. Click the Delete button.
3. A prompt will appear at the upper right corner of the screen asking you to confirm the deletion. Click Delete to confirm and remove the entry (see screenshot below for steps 1–3).

For your security, any time you update your direct deposit information, you will receive a confirmation email from payroll@nccu.edu.
