Customer details page - Bank details

The Bank details card on the customer details page lets you manage bank accounts and payment settings for a customer.
​
You can add multiple accounts, set a default account, manage SEPA mandates and configure the payment method and payment term.



By bank account:

  • IBAN — full and automatic with spaces (e.g. NL91 ABNA 0417 1643 00)

  • Standard Account — marking of the primary account

  • SEPA mandate (SDD) — mandate number, signature date (tooltip: “active from”), type (CORE)

  • Origin — whether the account was automatically recognized from transactions

In addition:

  • Payment method — SCT (manual transfer) or SDD (direct debit)

  • Payment term — number of days before reminders/collection start

  • Mandate history — overview of previous/cancelled mandates

​SCT – SEPA Credit Transfer (manual transfer)

  • The customer initiates each payment through his/her bank.

  • Always state the payment reference of the invoice.

  • After payment, the transaction is imported and automatically matched to the invoice.

  • Reminders can be sent automatically if payment is not made on time.

SDD – SEPA Direct Debit

  • You initiate the direct debit at predetermined times.

  • Requires a signed mandate on the standard account.

  • The system generates direct debit files (SDD) for submission to the bank.

  • In case of a chargeback (refusal/insufficient balance) this will be reported and you can follow up with reminders.
