Bank Account Setup


2024/06/21 • 13 min. to read
In the Bank Account Setup window, all bank accounts required for payment processing are stored and managed. Here, you can add new bank accounts, edit or remove existing accounts, and update important account details. The overview provides a clear and structured representation of all relevant bank information to make payment processing efficient and transparent. If you are using the konfipay Connector, specific settings for bank accounts required for synchronization are also made here. The konfipay Connector enables seamless integration and synchronization of your bank accounts with respective financial systems. This includes the configuration of access data. For more information, see www.konfipay.de In addition, the Bank Account Setup window offers various tools and functions to assist you in the daily management of your bank accounts. These include monitoring account balances and transactions, as well as performing error analysis and corrections. All of these functions are designed to make your work easier and increase the efficiency of your financial processes. Furthermore, in the Bank Account Setup window, you can store SEPA XML schemas. These schemas are necessary for the standardized processing of SEPA transfers and direct debits. By storing the SEPA XML schemas, you ensure that all transactions comply with the current SEPA guidelines and can be executed correctly and on time. This facilitates cross-border payment processing within the SEPA area and ensures higher accuracy and reliability in payment transactions.

It establishes the legal framework under which the user can use the services of the bank or payment service provider. By signing the agreement document, the user commits to complying with certain standards and rules in handling the offered services. This creates binding obligations and ensures smooth payment processes. agreements documents imported through konfipay are stored in the Attached Documents and can be viewed in the Attachments factbox under Documents.
