All screenshots in the article were taken in the Dutch version of Nmbrs Accounting.
When setting up your administration in Nmbrs Accounting, accounts can be added in two ways:
- Automatic creation: As soon as you upload electronic statement files (such as MT940 or CAMT files) to the domain, the software recognizes and processes the statement lines. The corresponding bank accounts or credit cards are automatically created during this import.
- Manual creation: Accounts, credit cards, or online payment providers that are not created via an uploaded statement file must be added manually before transactions can be processed correctly.
Foreign currency account
Has the accountant added the Foreign currency feature to the domain’s contract? If so, you can create one or more specific foreign currency accounts for international transactions.
Permissions and roles
Only a user with a 'Back office' role in the domain or the 'Management', 'Financial administration' or 'External accountant' role can view, manually create, change or delete bank accounts.
Access to Bank accounts
To access:
- click on the Bank icon in the navigation bar
- then click on Bank accounts.
Bank accounts overview

This screen provides an overview of all business bank accounts, credit cards, and online payment providers within the selected administration. This overview also shows the current balance of the 'Internal transfers' suspense account.
For a detailed description of internal transfers, see article Suspense accounts.
Balances and consistency checks
The current balance as of the date of the last processed transaction in Nmbrs Accounting is shown next to each account.
The Consistency check column automatically verifies whether the transaction sequence is consistent. The following statuses may appear here:
- Balance not verified: The opening balance cannot be verified automatically because it is missing from the imported bank file.
- Balance is incorrect: Transactions are missing from the timeline, causing the calculated balance to differ from the actual bank balance.
Manage and view inactive accounts
- Deactivate an account: Is an account no longer in use? Open the account details and uncheck the Active checkbox. The account will then be hidden from the default overview.
- View inactive accounts: At the top of the overview, check the Show inactive bank accounts checkbox to make all archived or inactive accounts visible again.
