Getting started with cash and bank

Everything you need to register payments and manage your bank accounts can be found under Cash and bank. Here bank transactions are matched against accounting transactions.

Start integration with your bank

At present, the bank integration with automatic transfer of incoming and outgoing payments is possible with Nordea, Handelsbanken, SEB, Swedbank and Danske Bank. The first step of starting bank integration is to add the relevant bank account in Bookkeeping & Invoicing. Read more about what is applicable for your bank in the topic Work with bank integration.

Cash and bank accounts

You must add the bank accounts used by the company to be able to post transactions against them. A cash account and bank account are added automatically for all companies, but foreign currency accounts, savings accounts and the like must be added.

Record payments

To be able to register an incoming or outgoing payment you need two things - the date of the transaction and the amount. All information needed to register a payment can be found on your bank statement in the internet bank.

There are various ways to go about registering bank transactions.

  • With a bank integration, the bank statement is automatically sent to Bookkeeping & Invoicing from your bank. This is possible with Handelsbanken, SEB, Nordea, Swedbank and Danske Bank.
  • A semi-automatic way to register bank transactions is to import the bank statement from your internet bank.

  • Another semi-automatic way to register the bank transactions is to copy your bank statement from your internet bank and paste it.
  • Register the transactions one by one manually.

Match bank transactions with accounting transactions

The bank transactions that Bookkeeping & Invoicing can reconcile with certainty against sales and purchase invoices for are posted directly to the ledger. If the bank account statement includes other transactions than payments of invoices, for example if you have made a purchase against receipt or a tax or wage payment, you need to match the bank transaction against these by selecting Match and entering the correct accounting transaction.
