Importing bank payments
Reconciling invoice payments from a camt file instead of ticking orders off by hand.

Payments that arrive by bank transfer are reconciled under Orders → Import payments.
How it works
Download the file from e-banking
Either the bank's credit notification (camt.054) or an account
statement (camt.053).
Some banks need the camt.054 notification switched on once before they will produce it.
Upload it
Every credit whose reference belongs to one of your invoices is matched to its order.

Three counts — to book, needs a look, already done — and a reason for every line that does not match:
- unknown reference
- no reference
- amount or currency differs
- order already paid, cancelled or refunded
- imported before
Confirm
One confirmation books the matches. The order becomes paid exactly as if you had marked it paid by hand, and the order history gets a line Payment booked from bank file with the payer's name and the bank's booking date.
The safety rules
- Nothing is booked without your confirmation.
- A credit with no reference or with a differing amount is never booked automatically — it lands in "needs a look".
- Uploading the same file again books nothing twice.
Why the reference matters
The invoice number is printed on the invoice as the payment reference — and for Swiss and Liechtenstein shops it is encoded in the QR-bill so the customer cannot mistype it. That reference is what this import matches on.
