The resulting CSV file is in the ACH directory with a file name like

The CSV file is informational only and contains a list of the payments that will be in the actual file that you transmit to the state.

After completing the previous step, select the batch that you just created from the batch selection dropdown. You will see the companies in the list below that you created the file for.

directory with the name EFTDebitTransmittal_IA_yyyy_m_d_h_m_s.txt.
