1 INTRODUCTION

Thanks for choosing AMC Banking

With AMC Banking 365 Financials Service is possible to link your online bank accounts to your bank accounts in Microsoft Dynamics 365.

This service automates the bank account reconciliation and payment processing as you will be able to get bank statements directly into Microsoft Dynamics 365.

To be able to link your bank accounts, a connection between AMC Banking 365 Financials Service and your bank must be created.

A prerequisite to create a connection between AMC Banking 365 and your bank is that you have received credentials from your bank, which give you rights to read bank statements into Microsoft Dynamics 365.

If you have not received the bank credentials yet, feel free to test the service using demo data in a Cronus company. Find more details in the chapter 5.

This guide will show you how to create this connection and how to link your bank accounts.

The guide is common for all countries. Only the list of available banks is different from country to country
