File number should auto increment for EFT file creation in EFT Payments in Payroll

Our bank requires the file creation number to be unique across all EFT file submissions. This must be a unique four digit number with leading zeros (from 0001 to 9999). This should auto-increment in Vista because if we accidentally submit a file with duplicate numbers it will be rejected by the bank. If we leave this as it is in Vista, we have to manually keep track of the prior file number which is error prone.

    This is required for every Company that uses a Canadian bank.
    The current recommended workaround to keep track of our own File Creation Number in our own excel sheet is very tedious. 

    The File Creation number should auto-populate with the next available number.  There should also need to be a way to reset/define the seed number.

    It's such a simple thing that would mean alot to every Canadian Company that uses Vista.

    We would also like to request that the file creation number be included on the EFT Active Audit Report.
