Agrimaster has two ways to download a bank statement from your bank to the cashbook. Each method has its pros and cons, yet the outcome is almost identical.
- Automated bank feeds setup through Agrimaster’s File Manager.
- Manual CSV statement download from the bank accessed directly through the Agrimaster cashbook.
In some instances, certain banks are not supported by Illion (our secure Bank Feeds provider), e.g., Rabo Bank. In this case, you need to use the CSV statement download option from Rabo Bank Internet Banking for Agrimaster’s reconciliation process.
Choosing the best method
- Both methods save you a lot of time doing your books.
- Both methods download almost identical sets of data.
- Automatic Cashbook reconciliation process works the same for both.
