Import payments from a bank file

Load a month of bank activity, matched to leases, with a review step before anything is written.

Start: the payments import Result: confirmed payments recorded against the right leases.

Steps

  1. Download the CSV from your bank.
  2. Start the import and upload it.
  3. Domi Vera matches each credit to a lease and shows you the result before writing anything.
  4. Check the matches, fix any it could not place, then commit.

How matching works

First by the lease’s payment reference, which is exact. Where the tenant did not use it, by name, unit and amount - a best guess, shown for your confirmation rather than applied silently.

Anything that looks like a duplicate is flagged as a Possible duplicate rather than skipped, so you decide.

The single highest-value thing you can do for month-end is get tenants using their payment reference. Everything downstream - matching, balances, interest, arrears chasing - is easier when the money arrives labelled.
