Banking File - Sweden

This page contains some guidance about where to enter information in order for it to be included correctly in Banking File export files when they are produced using the various Swedish bank Payment File Formats

Sweden - Handelsbanken, Sweden - Nordea, Sweden - SE-Banken and Sweden - Swedbank
Foreign Country Payment not selected - Domestic Payments


Configuration
  1. In the Contact records for each domestic Supplier:

    1. Enter the Supplier's bank account number in the Bank Account or Bank Account 2 field. If the Supplier's bank account is held at the bank selected as the Payment File Format, enter the Supplier's bank account number in the Bank Account 2 field. Otherwise, enter it in the Bank Account field. For example, if the Payment File Format is Sweden - Nordea and the Supplier's bank account is held at the Nordea bank, use the Bank Account 2 field. If it is held at a different bank, use the Bank Account field. If the Payment File Format is Sweden - Swedbank and the Supplier's bank account is held at Swedbank, use the Bank Account 2 field. and so on.

    2. If you enter a Reference for a Supplier, it will be copied to each Purchase Invoice and exported from there.

  2. In the Payment Modes setting, enter your bank account number in the Bank A/C No. field in each Payment Mode.
Purchase Invoices
  1. Specify a Reference or a Supp. Inv. No. in each Purchase Invoice.
Payments
  1. Information will be exported in different formats depending on whether the Supplier's bank account is held at the bank selected as the Payment File Format. This is determined by checking whether the To Bank A/C in a Payment row is the same as the Bank Account (account at a different bank) or the Bank Account 2 (account at the same bank) in the Contact record for the Supplier. If the To Bank A/C in a row does not match either of the Bank Accounts in the Contact record, the row will not be exported correctly. Therefore, you should not change the To Bank A/C in any Payment row.
Exporting
  1. For a Payment row to be exported, the To Bank A/C must not be blank.

  2. The Invoice No. in a Payment row must refer to a valid Purchase Invoice (i.e. Prepayments and On Account Payments will not exported).

  3. Select Pay on Due Date in the 'Specify Banking File' window if appropriate. Selecting this option will cause the later of the Payment Date and the Due Date of the Purchase Invoice being paid to be exported for each Payment. Otherwise, the Payment Date of each Payment will be exported.

  4. If you select the Unexported Only option in the 'Specify Banking File' window, Payments in the range that have not been marked as Ordered and those that have been marked as Ordered will be exported. Payments that have been marked as OK will not be exported. After the export process, any unordered Payments in the range will be marked as Ordered automatically. If you need to export a Payment that has been marked as OK, select the All option in the 'Specify Banking File' window but be careful when specifying the range of Payments to be exported as any Payments in the range that have previously been exported will be exported again. Payments and individual Payment rows that have been invalidated will never be exported.

    1. Ensure the Company Name and Country are correct. The Country should use the two-character ISO 3166 format.

    2. Enter your bank account number in IBAN format including two-character country prefix in the Bank 2 field. The bank account number will be used if the Bank A/C No in a Payment Mode is blank (step 4 below), and the country prefix will be used as the country in which you are located (the export function will sometimes use the country prefix and sometimes the Country field itself for this purpose).

  2. In the Banks setting:

    1. Enter a separate record for each Bank used by your Suppliers, and one for your own Bank.

    2. For your own Bank, specify a BIC (SWIFT) and enter the Account (IBAN). Enter your Signer ID in the Factoring Type Code field (this will be exported in the <Id> tag (inside <InitgPty>)) and your Contract ID in the Bank ID Code field (this will be exported in the <Id> tag (inside <Dbt>)).

    3. If you will be sending Payments to a Supplier's Bank in Currencies other than the Euro (i.e. if you will use Currencies other than the Euro as the Bank Currency in Payment rows to the Supplier), you may need to specify an Exchange Rate Contract Number in that Supplier's Bank record. This will be exported in the <CtrctId> tag inside <XchgRateInf>.

    4. If a Supplier's Bank is not in your country, specify a BIC (SWIFT) in their Bank record, and enter the word "Foreign" in the Sort Key field.

    5. For your Suppliers' Banks, enter the country in which they are located in the Country field (in two-character ISO 3166 format).

  3. In the Contact records for each Supplier:

    1. Enter the address ensuring that you use the second and third Invoice Address fields. Both fields must be filled in for these address lines and the country to be exported (in the <PstlAdr> tag inside <Cdtr>). For domestic Suppliers, the second Address field should consist of the post code and the town. The country will be taken from the prefix in the Supplier's IBAN.

    2. Enter the Supplier's bank account number in IBAN format including two-character country prefix in the IBAN Code field.

      If the bank account number is not in IBAN format, enter it in the Bank Account or Bank Account 2 fields, and enter the Supplier's country in the Country field (in two-character ISO 3166 format).

    3. Enter the Supplier's Bank in the Account Operator field using 'Paste Special' and the Bank's Sort Code in the Sort Code field.

  4. In the Payment Modes setting, enter your Bank on flip A of each Payment Mode using 'Paste Special' and ensure the Account (IBAN) is brought into the Bank A/C No field.
Payments
  1. Ensure the To Bank A/C on flip H of each row contains the relevant Supplier's IBAN. Usually this will have been copied from the Purchase Invoice being paid. If this field is empty, the Supplier's bank account number will be taken from the IBAN Code, Bank Account or Bank Account 2 fields in the Contact record for the Supplier If the bank account number is not in the IBAN format, the tag <IBAN> in <CdtrAcct> will not be exported and instead the bank account number will be exported in the tag <Othr>.

  2. If there is a Bank Reference in a Payment row (flip H), it will be exported in the tag <Ref> inside <RmtInf>. By default, the Bank Reference will have been copied from the Reference in each Purchase Invoice being paid but you can add one or edit the default. If there is no Bank Reference, the <Ref> tag will not be exported, and instead the Supp. Inv. No. of the Purchase Invoice being paid will be exported in the tag <Ustrd> (also inside <RmtInf>). If the Purchase Invoice does not have a Supp. Inv. No. or a payment row is a Prepayment or On Account Payment, the text "TRANSFER" will be exported in <Ustrd>.

    If you export a Payment on a "Per Supplier" basis (points 7 and 9 below), the export function will check each row paying a particular Supplier for a Payment Code or Bank Reference (both on flip H, and both will have been copied from each Purchase Invoice). The first Payment Code or Bank Reference that it finds will be exported in the <Ref> tag. If no row has a Payment Code or Bank Reference, the <Ustrd> tag be exported instead. This will contain a text string constructed from the Supp. Inv. Nos. of each Purchase Invoice, in the format <Ustrd>Invoice No.: Supp. Inv. No, 1, Supp. Inv. No. 2</Ustrd>. If any Purchase Invoice does not have a Supp. Inv. No. or if a Payment row is a Prepayment or On Account Payment, the text "TRANSFER" will be exported (e.g. <Ustrd>Invoice No.: TRANSFER, Supp. Inv. No. 2</Ustrd>).

  3. Select "Per Supplier" as the Payment Format on the 'Bank' card if appropriate.
Exporting
  1. Select "Shared" as the Bank Fees option in the 'Specify Banking File' window if appropriate. This will cause "SLEV" to be exported in the tag <ChrgBr>. You can use the Payment Settings setting to choose which option in the specification window will be selected by default.

  2. If a Payment record contains more than one row with the same Supplier, you can select One Payment per Supplier in the 'Specify Banking File' window if you want those rows to be grouped together as a single payment in the export file. If you select this option, all Payments will be exported on a One Payment per Supplier basis. If you do not select it, only those Payments where the Payment Format is "Per Supplier" (step 7 above) will be exported on that basis.

  3. If a Payment record contains a row paying an international Supplier, the BIC (SWIFT) of the Supplier's bank will be exported in the tag <BIC> inside <FinInstnId> inside <CdtrAgt>. The payment to an international Supplier will be detected by comparing the country prefix in your IBAN (in the Company Info setting) with that in the Supplier's IBAN. If the Supplier does not have an IBAN, the country prefix in your IBAN will be compared with the Country in the Supplier's Bank record or in the Contact record for the Supplier. The Supplier's country will be exported in the tag <Ctry> inside <Dtls> inside <RgltryRptg>. These tags will not be exported when paying domestic Suppliers, unless you select Foreign Payment in a particular Payment record. Do not select Foreign Country Payment in the 'Specify Banking File' window, because the resulting file will not contain any payments.

  4. If you select the Unexported Only option in the 'Specify Banking File' window, Payments in the range that have not been marked as Ordered and those that have been marked as Ordered will be exported. Payments that have been marked as OK will not be exported. After the export process, any unordered Payments in the range will be marked as Ordered automatically. If you need to export a Payment that has been marked as OK, select the All option in the 'Specify Banking File' window but be careful when specifying the range of Payments to be exported as any Payments in the range that have previously been exported will be exported again. Payments and individual Payment rows that have been invalidated will never be exported.
