Bank Feeds - Validate bank account numbers when setting up direct bank feeds
We have twice had clients attach the wrong bank account to the Xero bank accounts when setting up direct bank feeds. Obviously they should check the bank account number when attaching the account but there should be a check in the software to prevent or at least warn against this.
Hi there, appreciate you for putting this forward. We can see how validating bank account numbers during direct bank feed setup could help reduce errors and give users more confidence when connecting their accounts.
We just want to highlight that users have the option to edit and change bank account numbers from the Chart Of Accounts screen after the bank feed is connected.
I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support. If this is something you'd like to see, please keep voting and share how this would improve your bank feed setup process.
