Using the Payments and Reconciliations (DK) Extension

Make fast, error-free payments by exporting files that are formatted specifically for exchanges with your vendor or bank. These files speed up the payment and reconciliation processes, and eliminate errors that can happen when you manually enter the information on a bank website.

This extension supports file formats for several Danish banks. When you export payment information to a file, the extension packages the data into the format that your bank requires. For example, the formats include Bankdata-vl, BEC, SDC, and FIK, which many different banks use, and some that are more specialized for certain banks, for example, Danske Bank and Nordea. The extension also includes some formats for importing and reconciling bank statements.

NOTE

To use the extension, you must know the format that your bank or vendor requires. Some banks or vendors provide this information on their websites; however, you might need to contact their customer service to get the information.

Supported Bank Formats

This extension can apply the following file formats for payment files:

BANKDATA-V3
BEC-INDLAND

To set up the extension

There are a few steps to get started.

Allow payment data exports. To help protect your data, this is not readily available.
Set up purchase and payables so that you do not require external document numbers on invoices. If needed, you can use the reference number to refer to a specific invoice.
Specify the payment method for each vendor. Payment methods define how you pay invoices from the vendor. For example, Bank, Cash, Check, or Account.
Specify the type of format to use for each of your bank accounts. For example, NORDEA, DANSKEBANK, SDC, and so on.

Additionally, you must assign vendors to a domestic Gen. Bus. Posting Group and a Vendor Posting Group. The Country/Region setting for the vendor must be Denmark (DK). For more information, see Setting Up Posting Groups.
