Submit Direct Deposit Information (Germany)

To submit a Direct Deposit form for employees in Germany pay groups:

  1. Go to People, open the employee profile, click Forms, and then click Direct Deposit.
  2. Click Add.
  3. Identify the financial institution by filling out the BIC/Swift Code field. This alphanumeric value must be either 8 or 11 digits long.
  4. Fill out the IBAN field for the bank account. To ensure accuracy, type the number again in the Reenter IBAN field. When you save, Dayforce checks the first two characters of the IBAN that you enter to identify the country, and then validates the length of the value entered based on the requirements for the specific country.
  5. Select an option in the Deposit Type setting to define how the amount will be distributed to this account:
    • For all pay to be distributed to this account, click Remainder/Full Amount.
    • For pay to go to more than one account, click Monetary Amount. Dayforce displays a field where you need to enter the amount you want to be distributed to the account.
  6. Attach additional information to the Supporting Documents section of the form as needed. See Attach Files to Forms.
  7. If you want pay to be distributed to multiple accounts, click Add and enter the account details.
  8. Enter the amount to be distributed to this account. If you want all remaining funds to be distributed to this account, select Remainder/Full Amount. Otherwise, select Monetary Amount and enter the amount to be distributed to this account.
  9. Add any additional accounts and specify the amounts to be distributed to these accounts. The deposit type for the last account in the list must always be Remainder/Full Amount, so that the remaining funds go into this account.
  10. To change the priority order of the accounts, select the account then click Move Up or Move Down.
  11. Click Submit.

Note: When there is a pending change to direct deposit information, the Direct Deposit Form is locked and displays a warning message. Users can't make further edits to the information until the pending change is accepted or rejected.
