Manage bank connections

What is this?

The Bank connections overview is the central place for all PSD2 connections of your club. Here you see at a glance which bank accounts are linked to Chorilo via PSD2, when each connection expires, whether the last sync was successful and which connections need attention.

PSD2 is the EU directive that allows third-party providers like Chorilo, with your consent, to read bank transactions automatically — secure, encrypted and without Chorilo being able to move money.

In the overview you see per connection:

• Bank name and account name
• Status — active, expiring soon, expired, error
• Expiry date of the current PSD2 authorization
• Last successful synchronization
• Number of transactions fetched today

How to use the overview

1. Open Administration > Cashbook > Accounts.
2. Click Bank connections at the top right.
3. See the list of all existing connections.
4. Click a connection to open details and actions (sync, renew, disconnect).
5. Follow yellow or red notices if connections show problems.

What the status symbols mean

• Green — Active: connection running, sync working
• Yellow — Expiring soon: PSD2 authorization expires in the next 14 days, please renew
• Red — Expired: connection must be renewed, otherwise no new transactions
• Red — Error: technical problem (e.g. bank temporarily unreachable) — usually restarting sync helps

Permission

To view you need cashbook.view. To connect, renew or disconnect you need cashbook.edit.

Tips

• Take a quick look once a week — expired connections are the most common cause of incomplete bookkeeping.
• Rather renew connections a few days before expiry instead of waiting — that way you avoid gaps in transactions.
• After every renewal check with Sync now whether the connection really works again.
