Sage 200 Professional – Setting up Bank Feeds.

Created on  | Last modified on 

Summary

Bank Feeds is a free secure service that you can use to download your bank transactions to Sage 200 Professional, to help you reconcile your bank account.

Process

 CAUTION: Barclay's Corporate is currently unavailable to use for bank feeds setup. 

Open Banking (PSD2)

Open Banking (PSD2) is a secure way for you to share financial information from your bank with companies like Sage that offer banking and payment apps and is designed to give you greater control over your financial data.

If your bank does not comply with this standard, you will not be able to use Bank Feeds with your Sage 200 software.

Supported Banks

The best way to see if a Bank is supported by the Sage 200 software is to follow the steps below to see if your bank account provider is listed. If it is not listed there then there is an option to log a request to add your bank to the Bank Feeds service, more information on that below.
