Specifies the file path to the payment file. File names are only required for banks that use manual file import and export. If your bank uses direct communication, you can leave the field blank.

Note that the path is always seen from the client.

When you use manual communication, payment files will be exported to the location you specified in the field above. If you select the box Warn when replacing file, Payment Management will warn you if you are overwriting an existing file.

Many users want to store their payment files from time to time. When exporting the file, they correct the name in the dialog - eg. they add the date the file was exported. This creates a file archive containing all payment files sent to the bank.

If you do not want to be warned every time you export a payment file, you can clear the box.

In order to Payment Management be able to validate your payments in the payment journal, as well as correctly format your import and export files, you need to associate a Bank Center code at your bank.

The code corresponds to the code from the setup file you imported under Import Continia's bank setup. The code must match the bank being created.

It is important that you choose the right bank, to ensure correct import and export of the payment files. If you are unsure about which Bank Bookkeeping Branch Code your should select, you can read more in the section Bank Overview.

Note that certain fields of Bank card automatically is deactivated depending on the selection of Bank Bookkeeping Branch Code. This is because some fields are bank-specific and therefore only used at the individual bank.

Specifies whether to save all xml files that Payment Management communicates with the bank.

The files are stored in an xml archive and can be accessed under the section How to use the XML archive on the bank card.

Indicates how Payment Management requests the bank for status response when a payment file is created, and for which transactions a status response is requested.

The request is part of the header of the Pain001 payment file and cannot be changed afterwards, even though you change the setting and select the action Update status on the payment journal. You must create a new payment file before a change takes effect.

You can select "blank", Failed or All.

"blank"
If the field is left blank, no status response is requested. This setting is used, e.g. if you are using manual communication but don't want to manually import status files.

Failed
Should be specified if you only want to receive status replies to rejected payments.

All
With this option, a status reply is requested from the bank for all payments. This setting is used by most people who use direct communication or who want to manually import status files.

After having finished the bank setup, make sure that this box is checked. If at some point you no longer use the bank, you simply uncheck In Use.

When you enable In Use, Payment Management updates all field validations on the payment methods available to the bank. The update may take some time.

If a Payment Date falls on a bank holiday Payment Management will move the Payment Date according to what has been selected in this field. Move Payment Date can have the following values:

"blank"
Back
Forward

Blank and Forward will move the payment date forward to the next non-bank holiday as is normal in i.e. Denmark. Selecting Back will move the Payment Date back to the first non-bank holiday.
