1. Go to the [Bank transaction rules (CA204500)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/cash-management/cash-management-windows/bank-transaction-rules-ca204500/index.md) window.
1. Click ![icon-add](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/media/visma-net-erp/icon-add.png) to add a new record.
1. In the **Rule** field, enter a unique identifier for the new bank transaction rule.
1. In the **Description** field, enter a description for the rule.
1. Select the **Active** check box to make the rule available in the [Process bank transactions (CA306000)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/cash-management/cash-management-windows/process-bank-transactions-ca306000/index.md) window.
1. In the **Debit/Credit** field, select **Disbursement** or **Receipt**.
1. In the **Cash account** field, select the cash account that corresponds to the account in the bank. The system fills in the **Currency** field, depending on the chosen cash account.
1. In the **Trans. code** field, enter the transaction code on the account statement. If the **Trans. code** is used, you can see it in the [Import bank transactions (CA306500)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/cash-management/cash-management-windows/import-bank-transactions-ca306500/index.md) and [Process bank transactions (CA306000)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/cash-management/cash-management-windows/process-bank-transactions-ca306000/index.md) windows.
1. In the **Description** field, enter the description of the transaction.

    > [!NOTE]
    > You can use wildcard characters (\* or?) in the description, if you select the **Use wildcards** check box.
1. Optional: Select the **Match case** check box if you want the font case of the transaction to match the font case in the **Description** field.
1. Optional: Select the **Use name of bank** check box if you want the name of the bank for the transaction to match in the **Description** field.
1. Enter the **Bank account number** (IBAN/BBAN) to be used on the bank transaction rule.
1. In the **Amount matching mode** drop-down list, select one of the following:

    1. **None**: The amount criterion is not used.
    1. **Equal**: The transaction amount must be equal to the number specified in the **Amount** box.
    1. **Between**: The transaction amount must be in the range of the numbers specified in the **Amount** and **Max. Amount** fields.
1. In the **Action** drop-down list, select one of the following:

    1. **Create document**: The system creates a new document to match the imported bank transaction that has no match.
    1. **Hide selected**: The system hides the imported bank transaction from the list and marks it as processed.
1. In the **Resulting entry type** field, select an [entry type](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/cash-management/configure-cash-accounts/select-and-edit-an-entry-type/index.md) to be used as a template. This template is used to create a cash transaction for unmatched imported bank transaction.
1. Change or specify the **VAT Zone** or **VAT category** that applies to the transaction if necessary. The **VAT calculation mode** is set to **Gross** by the system, and the **VAT category** field is updated with the default value when the **VAT zone** is selected.
1. If the company has several branches, you can select the branch for which the rule applies in the **Branch** field.
