Copy a direct debits template

Templates are a convenient way to help you create direct debits. Once you save a template you can select it to populate your payments without the need to add the details for each payment individually.

If you create a copy of an existing template you can edit it and save it as a new template.

How do I copy a direct debits template?

ANZ Internet Banking for Business customers can copy an existing direct debits template to create a new one.

  • Go to the "Payments" menu.
  • Select "Set up business Direct debit".
  • Select the "Manage templates" link.
  • Ensure the correct template is chosen, by clicking "Select" on the template you wish to copy.
  • Then select the "Copy" link and follow the steps below.

Step 1 - Enter a new template name

Copying a template gives you a starting point for creating a new template.

  • Enter a template name associated with the type of payments being made.
  • Choose one that you will easily identify for future use

Step 2 - Edit the template if necessary

You can make the following edits to your direct debits templates:

  • Add more payments: follow steps 5-6 of the Create direct debits manually page.
  • Remove payments: select the "Remove" button to the right of the payment.
  • Change the amount: select the amount field and type a new amount in dollars and cents with a decimal point.
  • Update your business name: remember this will appear on the client/debtors' statements so ensure it is accurate and clear with no special characters (e.g.  !@$#%^&*).

Your template will now be updated and saved in your list of direct debits templates.
