Import TKB bank statements into bexio with importly
importly recognizes Thurgauer Kantonalbank statements automatically – four format variants are supported.
Which files importly reads from TKB
| File | Description |
|---|---|
| Account statement CSV | The transaction export from E-Banking |
| camt.053 XML | The ISO 20022 statement |
Step 1: Download the statement from TKB
- Log in to TKB’s E-Banking.
- Open the account whose transactions you want to post.
- Choose the export function for the account transactions and CSV as the format.
- Set the desired period and download the file.
Step 2: Import the file into importly
- Open the entries table in importly.
- Drag the file anywhere onto the page. The import opens automatically.
- importly shows you the detected format – for a TKB statement, Thurgauer Kantonalbank is at the top. If something doesn’t match, pick a different format in the Detected format field or create a new template via Create / edit template.
- Select your bank account from the chart of accounts, for example 1020.
- Check the preview and click Import.
If your table already contains rows, importly asks whether the new entries should be appended or the existing ones replaced.
What importly does with each column
| Column in the statement | Field in importly |
|---|---|
| Buchungsdatum | Date |
| Valutadatum | not imported |
| Buchungstext | Description |
| Auftragsart | not imported |
| Gutschrift (CHF) | Amount, bank account in Debit |
| Belastung (CHF) | Amount, bank account in Credit |
| Betrag Einzelzahlung (CHF) | Individual position of a collective entry |
| Saldo in (CHF) | not imported |
The sign is resolved into debit and credit: when money comes in, your bank account is in Debit; when money goes out, in Credit. importly leaves the contra account empty – you set it in the table or through your rules.
The statement lists incoming and outgoing payments in two separate columns. importly merges them into one amount with a debit-credit assignment.
If the statement contains collective entries with individual positions, you can choose in the import window whether you want the individual payments as separate rows or just the collective entry as one row.
Adjusting document number and description
The two pattern fields in the import window let you decide what ends up in the description and document number. When you click into the field, importly suggests the available values as placeholders. importly remembers your setting for your next TKB import.
If something doesn’t work
importly doesn’t recognize the format Check that you downloaded the CSV file and not the PDF. importly cannot read PDF statements. If the file is correct and still nothing is recognized, you can send it to us directly from the import window – we’ll add the format.
Rows are missing The export is limited to the selected period. An import can contain at most 5,000 rows.
Amounts end up on the wrong side This happens when the wrong bank account was selected. The debit-credit decision depends solely on the sign in the statement and the selected bank account.
