Bank transaction rules (CA204500)

You can use this window to define and view the rules that are used to create new payments for imported bank transactions for which matching documents were not found in the system in the Process bank transactions (CA306000) window.

For more information: Process bank transactions (CA306000).

This topic provides information about the elements in this window in Visma Net, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes.

You can define rules to create documents originating in the Cash management workspace only.

The system navigates you to this window when you click Create rule in the Process bank transactions (CA306000) and Process incoming payments (AR305000) windows.

In this case, fields in the Matching criteria section are filled with the transaction details automatically and you need to specify output details only. You can clear or modify values in the Matching criteria section if some of the transaction details cannot be used as a criterion. For example: You can modify the transaction description by using wildcard characters (* or?) and the Use wildcards check box or clear the Description field.

## Search line in list window If you are in the list window, the first line in the table is a search line. Each column has a search field which you can click to search for or filter on specific values and narrow down the displayed table rows. You can search and filter in as many columns as you need to, to only display the results you want to view. There are two types of search fields: + White: here you can type a specific search term to display results in this column containing this exact value. If you search on several (partial) words, you can separate them by a space or **%** and get different results: + space: the result contains the words in any order, + **%**: the result contains the words in the specific order, and the **%** functions as a wildcard as well. + Grey: you can click this to open the column filter pop-up window where you can filter the results for this column.
