Details are being shared at the meetings, including transition dates, deposit deadline changes, transit locations, and accounting and billing changes, as well as presentment and packaging requirements.

Here is a brief summary of what customers in Charleston, W.Va., Little Rock and Louisville can expect as operations shift to Cincinnati and Memphis.
