Accounting link with ABN AMRO

Disclaimer

All screenshots in the article were taken in the Dutch version of Yuki.

With the ABN AMRO accounting link, you no longer need to manually download and upload bank files. Bank transactions are automatically retrieved and processed in Yuki, ensuring that your administration always contain up-to-date bank data.

The accounting link with ABN AMRO is only available when a user with the ‘Management’ role has selected the Minimal, Small, Medium, Large, or Unlimited bundle via the Yuki Store in the domain.

Create bank account first

Before you activate the accounting link, the specific bank account must already exist in the domain.

If the bank account has not been created, Yuki will not know which domain the transactions automatically retrieved via the accounting link are intended for.

Supported account types

Unlike some other banks, the ABN AMRO accounting link has an important limitation:

Supported

• Standard business checking accounts
• Deposit accounts linked to a current account

Not supported

• Savings accounts
• G-accounts (blocked accounts for payroll taxes/VAT).

Automatic synchronization

ABN AMRO bank transactions are automatically retrieved by Yuki once a day between 4:40 AM and 5:40 PM from Tuesday through Saturday (including holidays).

Retrieve transactions from before accounting link activation

Unfortunately, the accounting link cannot import 'old' transactions. This means you will need to manually import all bank transactions up to the activation date.

Activate ABN AMRO accounting link in Yuki

To activate the 'ABN AMRO accounting link' in Yuki, actions must be taken both in Yuki (by the accountant) and at the bank (by the business owner).

Activation in Yuki (by accountant)

In the accountant portal, the accountant must click on the ‘Manage’ link next to the bundle in the domain settings and then add the 'ABN AMRO link' feature.

Request link with ABN AMRO (by entrepreneur)

After activation in Yuki, the accounting link must also be requested directly from the bank.

Only the domain owner (who holds the ABN AMRO business debit card and the associated permissions) can request the accounting link and manage it later.

Important condition (ABN AMRO contract)

To use the accounting link, you must have a business accounting package with ABN AMRO. 

Follow these steps to request the accounting link: 

• Navigate to the website van ABN AMRO and open the Hoe werkt de boekhoudkoppeling? web page . 
• To open the application form, click the Direct aanvragen button on this web page.
• You will find the contract number that you have to enter in the form by clicking the Switch domain button in the upper left of your screen in the domain and then click on My domain. 
• Then, in the now-opened screen, under Domain click on Contracts.
  
  You see the contract number in the now-opened screen:
  
   

Yuki will be notified automatically about the accounting link.

After your request it can take an average of two weeks before the link is activated by the ABN AMRO.

Completely deactivate ABN AMRO accounting link

Deactivating the automatic ING accounting link involves two mandatory steps. The link is only successfully and permanently disabled once both steps have been completed.

.

Step 1. Deactivate in the Yuki contract (by accountant)

The accountant must remove the 'ABN AMRO link' feature from your domain’s contract.

However, this does not actually terminate the accounting link.

Step 2. Terminate via Business Internet Banking (by entrepreneur)

The domain owner (with an ABN AMRO debit card) must also terminate the accounting link via Internet Banking with the relevant bank:

• Go to [abnamro.nl/boekhoudlink](http://abnamro.nl/boekhoudlink )
• Under the section 'Bookkeeping link features', choose 'Cancel'. 
• Click on the 'Internet Banking Business link' and log in to ABN AMRO Internet Banking. 
• You then go through the steps to unsubscribe from the bank link. Choose which account(s) you want to cancel the link for.
•  If you want to remove multiple accounts than previously indicated, you can choose 'Repeat cancellation' later in the process.
