An update has been released, and here is an overview of what was improved in Bankfeed version 9.14.
Check out the features of Bankfeed.
When connecting bank accounts, specify the “Country Code” before selecting the bank.
This is useful if the company has bank accounts in several countries.
As there are different customer needs for filling the field “Description” in journals, the new version has now introduced the possibility to set what should be filled in this field.
In the “Integration Setup (Softera.Bankfeed)” it is possible to select the desired value for the field “Description” in the journal from:
Options:
Default (account name) – it is used the standard BC journal field “Description”. The account name is filled in according to the assigned Account No. in the journal line. For example, if you assign Customer No. P0003, the description will contain its name.
Payer Information – in this case the information from the “Payer Information” field will be filled in the “Description”. If you change the Account No. in journal line, the “Description” will remain the same.
Message to Recipient – in this case, the information from the “Message to Recipient” field will be filled in the “Description”. If you change the Account No. in the line, the “Description” will remain the same.
Until now, it was only possible to identify and exclude bank fees for credit transactions, but now it is also possible for debit transactions.
Practical situation. We pay for vendor €636,32, but the bank charges €653,18, which is increased by bank charges of €16,86. On the bank statement we see the amount of €653,18 debited. Normally, the accountant would split this amount into two lines, one, where the €636,32 would be applied with the debt for vendor, and the other line where the €16,86 would be written off as bank fees. To avoid of doing this manually, the “Bank Charge Recognition” formula can be used.
Since the “Message to Recipient” field shows an initial payment amount of €636,32 and a bank fee of €16,86, we select the “Recognized Amount” type “Amount excluding charge”.
During the import of the bank statement, we get the following distributed lines in journal

Hello,
I found this Dynamics 365 Business Central add-on that would save me tons of time by automatically importing bank statements and matching payments with invoices.
It has certain technical requirements like an up-to-date Business Central version and banks that comply with the PSD2 open banking protocol. Could you please check the requirements and let me know if we are able to use the Bankfeed app?
The requirements are here: www.bankfeed.com/faq/, or you may contact the add-on’s developers at hello@bankfeed.com.
Bankfeed works as an add-on for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Therefore the usage of this ERP system is necessary. The solution works best with the three latest versions of Business Central.
Before installing Bankfeed, we recommend checking if the following conditions are met:
1. Open banking API (PSD2) is not occupied.
If you use online payment provider services (Wordline, Wordpay, etc.), they might be connected through an open banking API. Therefore, Bankfeed will not be able to connect to this API as it is already occupied. In these situations, we can connect Bankfeed through the bank’s direct API, known as a Gateway. However, it usually requires additional banking fees and additional implementation hours.
2. Banks provide the information required for recognition and reconciliation.
Even though open banking is regulated using the PSD2 protocol and is mandatory for all EU banks, the banks treat these requirements differently. The amount of information provided through the APIs and its quality can differ depending on the bank. This can lead to a situation where Bankfeed will not be able to properly identify customers/vendors or documents because of the lack of data.
Here is a list of mandatory bank fields needed to enable Bankfeed’s payment recognition and reconciliation. Please check HERE if the banks you are using provide the information from these fields:
