Bank payment export format

Sets the file format of the payment batch the system creates when you send transfers to the bank from this account. Automatic / no manual selection uses the usual format of the selected or recognised bank. Change it manually only if your bank expects a different format.

A payment batch is paid from the bank account shown on the invoice; if the invoice has none, from the default active bank account of the invoice's currency. The batch uses this setting of that account.

If you choose a format that differs from the bank's usual one, you see a warning when saving; the setting is still saved. If there is no specific format for the bank, the system creates a CSV file.
