Settings -> Bank accounts and cash registers<\/div><\/div><\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Type<\/strong> \u2013 Bank account, cash register or offsetting *<\/li>\n
  2. Name<\/strong> \u2013 Internal company information; if there are multiple bank accounts with the same bank, you can enter a name here to distinguish them (do not enter the company name).<\/li>\n
  3. Active<\/strong> \u2013 If the account is active, it will be visible and usable in transactions. If changed to inactive, it cannot be used in payments or receipts and will not be shown on company documents.<\/li>\n
  4. Show on documents<\/strong> \u2013 Allows you to specify whether the given account is displayed on company documents.<\/li>\n
  5. Bank name<\/strong> \u2013 The name of the bank that will be displayed on company documents. The official name is automatically added for Estonian banks when entering the account’s IBAN number.<\/li>\n
  6. Account IBAN number<\/strong> \u2013 The company’s account number in IBAN format without spaces.<\/li>\n
  7. Account SWIFT code (BIC)<\/strong> \u2013 For Estonian banks, this is automatically added when entering the account’s IBAN number; for other banks, it must be entered manually.<\/li>\n
  8. Financial account<\/strong> \u2013 Must be unique for each bank account or cash register and is used when creating financial entries. If a suitable account is not available in the chart of accounts, a new account must be created before adding a new bank account\/cash register.<\/li>\n
  9. Description<\/strong> \u2013 If you want to make additional notes about the account for your reference, this is the appropriate place.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    *<\/strong> \u25cf<\/span>\u00a0The account type “Cash registry<\/strong>” means that the balance of this account is always displayed on the “Total cash<\/strong>” panel of the company overview page.
    The account type “Bank Account<\/strong>” means that the account balance is displayed on the “Total cash<\/strong>” panel only if an IBAN number has been added to the account settings. Therefore, this type should be used, for example, when adding an account to mark card payment service fees, capital lease agreements, or similar payments as paid.
    The account type \u201cOffsetting<\/strong>\u201d is used for settlements, i.e. for marking invoices and credit invoices as paid.<\/p>\n

    Actions menu<\/strong><\/div><\/div>\n

    Once the bank account or cash register details are saved, you can perform the following actions through the Actions<\/strong> menu:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Edit account\/cash register<\/strong> \u2013 To supplement or modify the account details, or to deactivate an account that is no longer in use.<\/li>\n
    2. Assign as a default account\/cash register<\/strong> \u2013 If you want this account to be offered first when manually entering receipts\/payments, make this selection here.<\/li>\n
    3. Add to document templates<\/strong> \u2013 If you previously set the account to not be displayed on documents, you can change that here.<\/li>\n
    4. Remove from document templates<\/strong> \u2013 If you have mistakenly added the account to document templates or if this account is no longer used as the primary one, you can remove it from the templates.<\/li>\n
    5. Delete account\/cash register<\/strong> \u2013 You can delete the account if you created it by mistake. However, if there are transactions associated with the account, it cannot be deleted.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\u25cf<\/span> Removing the account from document templates does not remove it from previously saved documents (sales invoices). To remove the account from the invoice PDF, you must open the invoice for editing and save it again.<\/p>\n\u25cf<\/span> If the account is no longer needed, you can change it to inactive; this option is available in the account editing view.<\/p>\n
