You can change the account designation as desired under "Customer Settings" in Electronic Banking. Go here to "Customer settings>Client>Action> Client accounts - detailed view" and select the account to change its designation. Via "Action>Edit" you can edit the respective account and change the account designation.

The account overview is not updated automatically. You can update it manually using the function "Get account information", which is located at the bottom right of the screen.

Please select the function ""Limit end-of-day statements"" in the menu item ""Account overview>Transactions"". After you have defined a period (day, week, month), you can retrieve the turnover data and export it via the PDF icon. The retrieval of turnover data is possible for the period in which turnovers have taken place.

For monthly statements the following note applies: If there was no account statement from the first and/or the last day in the month, then it is sufficient to take the first day in the month on which there were turnovers as FROM and the last day on which there were turnovers as TO. Since there was no turnover BEFORE the first and AFTER the last bank statement, the starting balance and the ending balance for this month are identical.

In the "Entry" menu, you can upload csv files to your electronic banking under the respective payment orders (Credit transfers, Direct debits) using the "From file" function.

• Step 1: Select the "Credit transfers" or “Direct debits” submenu option in the "Creation" menu tree. Then click on “From File…” at the bottom right in the “New creation” box.
• Step 2: Select the appropriate CSV file for upload.
• Step 3: Select the required order type and the ordering party account.
• Step 4: The datasets are converted into individual payment orders.
• Step 5: You can further process the payment orders and/ or directly sign them electronically and send them to the bank computer using the "Send..." button.

Structure of a CSV file

• The file does not contain any headlines.
• The separator between the fields is the semicolon “;“.
  (Empty fields are to be separated by semicolons. The last field of each record is not to be closed by a semicolon "";"").
• Empty lines are not permitted.
• The CSV file contains at least one data record (i.e. one payment) or several data records (= several payments).
• The lines are separated by CRLF.
• Each field is mapped to one of the following categories:
  • P = Mandatory field: Content must be specified
  • O = Optional field: content may be empty
  • K = Conditional field

In the "File Manager > File Transfers" menu, you can use the "New Upload" function to upload pain files to your Electronic Banking.

Under the menu item ""Entry"" you create various orders (transfers, direct debits, foreign transfers) or manage templates and/or already saved orders.

Foreign currency payments in the SEPA area or payments outside the SEPA area are entered under the menu item ""Foreign transfers"".

A fully entered payment can either be created as a file and signed electronically later (available under ""File manager > Outgoing file basket""), or signed electronically directly and transmitted to the bank computer via the ""Send..."" button.

• Your UserID
• The period of time when the error occurred
• What were you doing when the error occurred? What were you clicking on?
