The Entity Bank Details is another Custom Record from the Electronic Bank Payments bundle, but the difficulty in performing a CSV Import for this Custom Record is identifying a unique identifier. This article shows how to display the Internal ID for the Entity Bank Details record and use it for the CSV Import file (Answer ID 27210).

After configuring the Custom Record, the Internal ID of each Entity Bank Details will be displayed under the Bank Payment Details subtab of Employee and Vendor records. The Internal IDs can be utilized as the unique identifier when updating existing records via CSV Import.

Step 2: CVS Import
