Field Mapping When Importing SEPA CAMT Files

Business Central supports the regional SEPA standards (Single Euro Payments Area) for importing SEPA bank statements (CAMT format). For more information, see Using the AMC Banking 365 Fundamentals extension.

The SEPA CAMT standard itself has local variations. Therefore, you may have to modify the generic data exchange definition (represented by the SEPA CAMT code on the Posting Exchange Definitions page) to adapt it to a local variation of the standard. The following tables show the element-to-field mapping for tables 81, 273, and 274 in the SEPA CAMT implementation in Business Central.

For information about creating or adjusting a data exchange definition, see Set Up Data Exchange Definitions.

Elements in the Ntry node that are imported into Business Central but not mapped to any fields are stored in the Posting Exch. Column Def table. Users can view these elements from the Payment Reconciliation Journal, Payment Application, and Bank Acc. Reconciliation pages by choosing the Bank Statement Line Details action. For more information, see Reconcile Payments Using Automatic Application.

Important

In an import of CAMT bank statements, Business Central expects each transaction to be unique, which means that the Transaction ID field that comes from the Stmt/Ntry/NtryDtls/TxDtls/Refs/EndToEndId tag in the CAMT file, must be unique within the open bank account reconciliation. If the information is not present, Business Central ignores the payment. If an earlier bank reconciliation on the same bank account was posted with the same transaction ID as on the current import, the current transaction will not automatically reconcile but can still be imported.
