Import Extensions for Switzerland
With Banana Accounting you can import data from different formats.
SEPA Bank Statement /ISO 20022 Switzerland
Camt/ISO 20022 is the bank statement format made available by most Swiss banks.
- SEPA/ISO 20022 Switzerland extension for importing data from bank statements.
- This extension supports the Swiss file format and also imports QR-Code data.
- ISO 20022 Switzerland extension for importing account statement movements.
- This extension supports the Swiss file format and is similar to the previous one, but its specific function is for files in the ISO 20022 camt052, camt053 and camt054 format for Swiss specifications.
These import filters in standard formats are available regardless of the plan purchased.
Other bank statements
Some banks or credit cards also make the account statement file available in CSV format, see:
- List of import extensions available for Switzerland.
- List of Universal Import Extensions (including Paypal and others).
It happens very often that banks change CSV export formats without notice. Updating these import files can be time-consuming, so the import extensions are only available with the Advanced plan. We usually advise our users whenever possible to use files in ISO20022 format.
Bank statement Camt ISO 20022 Switzerland (Banana+)
Bank statement Camt ISO 20022 Switzerland (Banana+)Supported versions of the CAMT ISO 20022 format (Switzerland):

Imports only debits (outgoing transactions).

Extract customer invoice number from reference number
The reference number contains the invoice number. More information SCOR Reference and QRR Reference.
To extract the customer's invoice number from the reference number, there are two modes depending on whether the invoice reference number was created with Banana Accounting or other software.
Case 1: Invoices created with Banana Accounting Plus
If the reference number was created by the Banana Accounting Plus program:
- Check the box Extract customer invoice number from reference number.
- Check the box Use Banana format.
- The fields 'Start position', 'Number of characters' and 'Function' should not be used.

Case 2: Invoices created with other software
If the reference number was created with other invoicing systems:
- Do not check the 'Use Banana format' box.
- In the Start position field, indicate the position of the first character where the invoice number starts within the reference number.
- In the Number of characters field, indicate how many characters the invoice number consists of.
- Alternatively, instead of indicating position and number of characters, you can enter a JavaScript function that extracts the invoice number. For example: (function(text) {return text.substr(10,5);}). Note: the string must include the opening and closing parentheses.

The extracted invoice number is saved in the Invoice (DocInvoice) column of the Transactions table.
Extract customer account from reference number
The reference number contains the customer account. More information SCOR Reference and QRR Reference.
To extract the customer's invoice number from the reference number, there are two modes depending on whether the invoice reference number was created with Banana Accounting or other software.
Case 1: Invoices created with Banana Accounting Plus
If the reference number was created by the Banana Accounting Plus program:
- Check the Extract customer account from reference number box.
- Check the Use Banana format box.
- The fields 'Start position', 'Number of characters', and 'Function' should not be used.
- If using general ledger accounts as customer accounts, leave the Cost center for customer accounts parameter empty.
Otherwise, if using cost centers as customer accounts, indicate the cost center used (Cc1, Cc2, Cc3). - Check the Keep leading zeros box if the customer account starts with one or more zeros.

Case 2: Invoices created with other software
If the reference number was created with other invoicing systems:
- Do not check the 'Use Banana format' box.
- In the Start position field, indicate the position of the first character where the customer account starts within the reference number.
- In the Number of characters field, indicate how many characters the customer account consists of.
- If using general ledger accounts as customer accounts, leave the Cost center for customer accounts parameter empty.
Otherwise, if using cost centers as customer accounts, indicate the cost center used (Cc1, Cc2, Cc3). - Alternatively, instead of indicating position and number of characters, you can enter a JavaScript function in the Function field to extract the invoice number. For example: (function(text) {return text.substr(10,5);}). Note: the string must include the opening and closing parentheses.
- Check the Keep leading zeros box if the customer account starts with one or more zeros.

The extracted customer account is saved in the Account/Category or cost center (Cc1/Cc2/Cc3) column of the Transactions table.
For example, if by mistake you use general ledger accounts as customer accounts and specify Cc1 in the 'Cost center for customer accounts' field, the respective general ledger account will be treated as a cost center and shown in the Cc1 column of the Transactions table with a minus sign in front, for example: -110001. In this case, simply correct the parameters and repeat the operation.
Swiss Specifications
The Swiss banking system has defined specific formats for the international ISO20022 standard format.
The formats have been standardized as follows:
- camt053 (Standard electronic bank statement IBAN)
- QR-Invoice with standard IBAN account.
- Standard electronic bank statement with full details of transactions (debits and credits). It can be used when invoicing with the standard IBAN and SCOR reference number, to automatically record both debits and credits using auto-completion rules.
- If you receive payments to the special QR-IBAN account, the daily total of received payments (without detail) will also be included.
- camt054 (Special QR-IBAN electronic bank statement)
- QR-Invoice with special QR-IBAN account.
- This is the electronic bank statement that contains only the details of payments received on the QR-IBAN account (only credits invoiced with QRR reference type).
- camt052 (Accounting report)
- Used only in specific cases for transactions made during the day.
Integration between camt054 and camt053 statement
Those who collect payments via QR-IBAN can use the camt054 XML file to import and automatically record payments. At the same time, the full bank statement can be imported using the camt053 XML file.
How the camt054 and camt053 XML files work:
- The camt054 XML file contains only the details of payments from each customer (e.g. two invoices from two different customers result in two separate entries of CHF 100.00 each).
- The camt053 XML file, on the other hand, reports the total daily credit, without details (e.g. same two invoices, but only one credit entry of CHF 200, without identifying who paid).
- The payments received on the QR-IBAN account and imported via camt054 are transferred daily to the linked IBAN account (main bank account in the chart of accounts).
Issue: If both XML files (camt054 and camt053) are imported into the bank account, the same credit is recorded twice: once with detailed entries (camt054) and once with the total daily amount (camt053). This causes duplication of credited amounts.
There are two possible solutions:
- Use a clearing account.
- Manually delete the total credits from the camt053 file.
Below is the clearing account procedure, designed to avoid manually deleting duplicate credits and to prevent accidentally removing other accounting entries.
Solution: using the clearing account
To avoid double credit entries, a clearing account is used.
The clearing account is used:
- As an intermediary account to record payments from both camt054 and camt053 formats.
- To record incoming payments on the QR-IBAN.
- To transfer the payments to the IBAN account.
To avoid duplicate entries, follow a procedure similar to credit card management:
- Set up the chart of accounts
- Create the main bank account (e.g. 1020, IBAN account)
- Create the clearing account for the QR-IBAN (e.g. 1021, QR-IBAN account)
- Importing the camt054 file (QR-IBAN payments)
- Import the camt054 XML file selecting the clearing account (QR-IBAN) as the import bank account.
- Complete each transaction by entering as counter account CA the respective customer account.
- Importing the camt053 file (IBAN bank statement)
- Import the camt053 XML file selecting the bank account (IBAN) as the import account.
- Complete each transaction by entering, as counter account CA:
- the related account for detailed debit and credit transactions
- the clearing account (QR-IBAN), for global credits without detail, i.e., the total amount of customer credits

In the example, the account card for account 1021 (bank with QR-IBAN) shows:
- In the Debit column, the detailed payments from each customer (camt054).
- In the Credit column, the reversal of the global credit to zero out the clearing account.

In the example, the account card for account 1020 (bank with IBAN) shows:
- In the Debit column, the global credits from the camt053 file.
In the balance sheet, after import:
- The clearing account should have a balance of zero.
- The bank account (IBAN account) should show the global credit.
- Individual payments will be recorded in the customer subledger.

Enter supplier account and invoice number
Unlike customer invoices, it is not possible to automatically retrieve the supplier invoice number from the reference number, because its structure varies from one supplier to another. Each supplier defines the structure of their reference number independently, making standardized recognition impossible. This is currently a technical limitation that applies to all accounting software.
However, it is possible to automatically assign the supplier account using Rules, but the invoice number must be entered manually for each transaction. To facilitate entry, you can use the F2 key or double-click in the Invoice column: a list of the supplier's open invoices will appear, from which you can select the correct one. Alternatively, in the Invoice column, you can directly type the supplier's name to display the list of their open invoices.
A CAMT file is provided by banks to download account statement transactions. In Switzerland, it is the standard format used by banks.
Bank statement Camt ISO 20022 Switzerland (compatible with Banana 9)
Bank statement Camt ISO 20022 Switzerland (compatible with Banana 9)This extension imports and converts account statement movements into accounting movements. Supports files in ISO 20022 camt052, camt053 or camt054 for the Swiss specifications.
The ISO 20022 format is an international standard, offering the schemes camt.052, camt.053 and camt.054. The first version of these schemas was camt.05x.001.04, usable ONLY until November 2025. Thereafter it is to be replaced by the new scheme camt.05x.001.08.
Subsequently, it will need to be replaced by the new camt.05x.001.08 schema.
To import the bank statement in the new ISO 20022 format, camt.05x.001.08, available from November 2022, it is necessary to have Banana Accounting Plus and to use the new extension, which reads both formats.
Requirements
To use this extension, Banana Accounting 9.0.5 is required.
If you have Banana Accounting Plus, use the new extension Bank Statement Camt ISO 20022 Switzerland (Banana+)
Characteristics
This import extension differs from the generic ISO20022 import by the following specifics:
- The ISR reference number is entered in the description of the transaction;
- You can extract the invoice number from the ISR reference number (see Setting the parameters);
The invoice number you extracted will be saved in the Invoice (DocInvoice) column; - You can extract the customer account from the ISR reference number (see Setting the parameters);
The customer account you extracted will be saved as an account/category or cost center depending on the parameters; - You can disable the entry of the contra-account in the transaction (see Setting the parameters).
Extension installation
From the Extensions Menu > Manage Extensions > Online > Import > select the extension ~Bank Statement Camt ISO 20022 (Switzerland) > Import Bank extract Camt. (Banana 9) > Install button.
Setting the parameters
The extension parameters are required to electronically record invoice collection movements.
With these settings, it is possible to define how the invoice number and customer data are to be extracted, so that they are automatically entered in the relevant columns of the Transactions table.
To access the extensions parameters:
- Open the accounting file where you wish to import the transations.
- Access the extension parameters:
- From the Extensions Menu > Manage extensions > select extension ~Bank statement Camt ISO 20022 Switzerland - Import bank extract Camt. (Banana 9) > Settings button.
- or from the Account1 Menu > Import to accounting > Manage extensions > select extension ~ Bank statement Camt ISO 20022 Switzerland - Import Bank extract Camt. (Banana 9) > Settings button
- The following image shows the default parameters.

Add counterpart transaction
If this option is enabled, the extension will enter a counterpart entry with the total amount of the details for movements with details. The [CA] symbol appears in the clearing account and the corresponding account number must be entered manually. If this option is deactivated, no counterpart entry is made.
Extract invoice number from ISR reference
If this option is enabled, you can define how to extract the invoice number from the ISR reference number. The invoice number you extracted will be saved in the Invoice (DocInvoice) column.
You can extract the invoice number by indicating the position of the first character and the number of characters that match the invoice number in the ISR reference number, or by indicating a JavaScript function that extracts the invoice number from the ISR number, for example: "(function(text) {return text.substr(10,5);})". NB: The string must contain the initial and final round brackets.
Extract customer account from ISR reference number
If the option is enabled, it is possible to define how to extract the customer account from the reference number. The extracted customer account will be saved in the account/category or cost center field based on the parameters. If balance sheet accounts are used as the customer account, leave the 'Cost center for customer accounts' parameter empty. Otherwise, if cost centers are used as the customer account, specify the cost center used, e.g.: 'Cc1', 'Cc2', or 'Cc3' without the quotation marks.
For example, if by mistake, balance sheet accounts are used as customer accounts and 'Cc1' is indicated in the 'Cost center for customer accounts' field, the respective balance sheet account will be treated as a cost center and reported in the CC1 column of the Transactions table with a negative sign in front, for example: -110001. In this case, it is sufficient to correctly set the parameters and repeat the operation.
It is possible to extract the customer account from the reference number created by the Banana Accounting Plus program by checking the appropriate box without modifying the parameters related to the 'Starting position' and 'Number of characters' to be used.
It is possible to extract the billed customer account from other invoicing systems by specifying the position of the first character and the number of characters in the reference number corresponding to the customer account, or by specifying a JavaScript function that extracts the invoice number, for example: (function(text) {return text.substr(10,5);}). NB: the string must include the opening and closing parentheses.
Swiss specifications
Specifications for the use of ISO 20022 have been issued for the Swiss banking system.
Formats have been standardized as follows:
- camt053: Account Statement, with detailed transactions.
This is the file that your bank should provide, specifying that it does also include payments received.
A summary file (without any details) might be asked for, in which case camt054 form will also have to be requested, detailing the receipts. - camt054:
Transactions detailed by type (such as bills payments received for bills issued).
If detailed cash receipts are required, the bank will provide the dates in a camt054 file (as a substitute for V11).
This results in two files:- camt053 file (Account Statement) with the several payments and the daily total of cashed bills, which details are contained in the camt054 file.
- camt054 file, detailing all transactions for cashed bills with their reference number.
- camt052: (Account Reporting).
Is only used in special situations, to monitor transactions for a specific day.
New: now with Banana Accounting Plus, you can also obtain the QR-invoice with a standard IBAN account or the QR-invoice with a special QR-IBAN account. Additionally, you can use the auto-completion rules for transactions to automatically record both debits and credits with the new Camt ISO 20022 Bank Statement Switzerland extension (Banana+).

You can import the data in two different ways.
Import *.csv file
- Open your accounting file (*.ac2).
- Via the Actions > Import to accounting > select Import transactions in the dropdown menu.
- Choose the extension to be used, in this case 'Bexio - Import transactions .xlsx (Banana+ Advanced) [BETA]'.

- Via the Actions > Import to accounting > select Import transactions from the dropdown menu.
- Choose the extension to be used, in this case 'Bexio - Import transactions .xlsx (Banana+ Advanced) [BETA]'.
- Open the Excel file, press Ctrl+A to select all the data, then Ctrl+C to copy the data to the clipboard.
- In the dialog box that opens, select the option to Import data from the clipboard.
- Confirm with OK.
- Review the changes using the proposed dialog. Press OK if everything is correct otherwise press Cancel if you have seen any errors, at which point correct any errors and repeat the process from step 1.

Accounts table
Accounts used for the transaction import but not yet in the Banana chart of accounts will automatically be added to the end of the chart of accounts. You will need to manually add the corresponding information for the newly imported accounts. Proceed as follows:
- You can move the account by repositioning it in another row.
- Check that the BClass automatically set during import is correct.
- Set the correct grouping in the Sum In column.
- Set the correct account currency code. *
*Set the correct currency code/symbol also to those accounts that were already in the chart of accounts in Banana but with a different currency than the one assigned to them in Bexio.
For more details, visit the Accounts page.
Vat Codes table
Some of the VAT codes used in imported transactions are automatically recognized and converted into VAT codes used by Banana Accounting. Unrecognized tax codes will be added as new items at the end of the VAT Codes table. Proceed as follows:
- Complete the missing details for the VAT code and create a new tax rate in the VAT Codes table. On the following VAT Codes table page, it is explained how this table is structured.
- (RECOMMENDED) Check if the newly entered VAT rate matches one of the existing tax rates. There is likely already an identical tax code that meets your requirements. If so, you need to update the rows in the Transactions table that refer to the old VAT code and replace it with the new one. You can use the Find and Replace function for this. After replacing the VAT codes in the Transactions table, you can delete the rows with the old VAT codes.
Transactions Table
Bexio exports accounting entries by splitting the net amount of the transaction and the VAT amount into two separate rows.
During import, both rows are added to the Transactions table, but this results in a duplicate VAT entry. In fact, Banana is already capable of correctly calculating and recording VAT using the VAT columns in the row with the net amount, making the specific VAT rows redundant.
However, the program cannot definitively identify which rows refer to VAT, as the accounts used may vary depending on the chart of accounts. For this reason, both rows are always imported.
You can manually remove the duplicate VAT entries using the Filter rows function:
- Open the filter rows tool and enter a search criterion, using the filter command generator provided by Banana GPT.
- Search for all rows related to VAT entries, for example by specifying the accounts used or filtering transactions that include a VAT code.
- Once the filtered list is shown, select all the rows and delete them.
- Remove the filter to view the entire content of the Transactions table again.
At this point, the duplicate VAT entries will be removed, and VAT will be correctly recorded only once for each transaction.
You might still see some errors or warnings related to VAT entries:
- VAT due not correctly recorded: this issue can be resolved by using the VAT codes set up in Banana or indicating in the VAT Codes table whether the VAT is due for a given code.
- Warning: VAT due not correctly recorded: in some transactions, the applicable VAT may appear to be entered in reverse, though this is not necessarily an error. This can happen, for example, in cancellations or adjustments.
See the VAT Management page.
Check accounting
Your accounting in Banana Accounting should now be ready, and there should be no further issues. You can perform an additional check by Checking and recalculating your accounting.

More and more users have asked us how to switch from Infoniqa to Banana. That’s why we developed this dedicated extension and prepared these instructions.

Follow the import procedure below to bring all your accounting transactions into Banana.
For general guidance on switching to Banana, see our Retrieving data from other programs page.
Requirements for using the extension
- Banana accounting Plus with the Advanced Plan.
- File type: double-entry accounting with VAT and multi-currency. You can either create a new file or use an existing one.
Export procedure
Export the *.csv file with your transactions by logging into Infoniqa ONE 50 platform. For more information about the export process, see: Der Dialog Buchungen exportieren (DE).
We recommend saving the file in a place where you can easily find it later and not opening it before importing it.
Import procedure

- Install the extension 'Infoniqa ONE 50 - Import movements .csv (Banana+ Advanced)' from the Extensions menu > Manage Extensions.
- Via the Actions > Import to accounting > select Import transactions in the drop down menu.

Managing Imported Data in Banana Accounting
Once the data has been imported into Banana, some manual adjustments to the accounting may be required.
During the import process, most transactions are automatically recognized and converted according to Banana Accounting’s logic. However, in some cases, the program cannot confidently determine the correct conversion for certain operations. As a result, these transactions are imported in a “raw” format and need to be reviewed and adjusted manually.
In Banana, you can edit transactions at any time, the following sections explain how to manage the imported data across the different tables.
Accounts table
Accounts used for the transaction import but not yet in the Banana chart of accounts will automatically be added to the end of the chart of accounts. You will need to manually add the corresponding information for the newly imported accounts. Proceed as follows:
- You can move the account by repositioning it in another row.
- Check that the BClass automatically set during import is correct.
- Set the correct grouping in the Sum In column.
- Set the correct account currency code. *
*Set the correct currency code/symbol also to those accounts that were already in the chart of accounts in Banana but with a different currency than the one assigned to them in Infoniqa ONE 50.
If the accounts used in the transactions do not have a defined currency, the program sets the base currency, since the transaction file provided by Infoniqa contains no reference to the original currency of the account. For this reason, it can be a good practice to first manually complete the chart of accounts by entering the accounts along with their currencies, and then proceed with the transaction import.
For more details, visit the Accounts page.
VAT Codes table
Some of the VAT codes used in imported transactions are automatically recognized and converted into VAT codes used by Banana Accounting. Unrecognized tax codes will be added as new items at the end of the VAT Codes table. Proceed as follows:
- Complete the missing details for the VAT code and create a new tax rate in the VAT Codes table. On the following VAT Codes table page, it is explained how this table is structured.
- (RECOMMENDED) Check if the newly entered VAT rate matches one of the existing tax rates. There is likely already an identical tax code that meets your requirements. If so, you need to update the rows in the Transactions table that refer to the old VAT code and replace it with the new one. You can use the Find and Replace function for this. After replacing the VAT codes in the Transactions table, you can delete the rows with the old VAT codes.
Transactions table
Infoniqa ONE 50 exports accounting entries by splitting the net amount of the transaction and the VAT amount into separate rows.
Transactions with VAT
During import, all rows are added to the Transactions table, but this results in a duplicate VAT entry. In fact, Banana is already capable of correctly calculating and recording VAT using the VAT columns in the row with the net amount, making the specific VAT rows redundant.
However, the program cannot definitively identify which rows refer to VAT, as the accounts used may vary depending on the chart of accounts. For this reason, both rows are always imported.
You can manually remove the duplicate VAT entries using the Filter rows function:
- Open the filter rows tool and enter a search criterion, using the filter command generator provided by Banana GPT.
- Search for all rows related to VAT entries, for example by specifying the accounts used or filtering transactions that include a VAT code.
- Once the filtered list is shown, select all the rows and delete them.
- Remove the filter to view the entire content of the Transactions table again.
At this point, the duplicate VAT entries will be removed, and VAT will be correctly recorded only once for each transaction.
You might still see some errors or warnings related to VAT entries:
- VAT due not correctly recorded: this issue can be resolved by using the VAT codes set up in Banana or indicating in the VAT Codes table whether the VAT is due for a given code.
- Warning: VAT due not correctly recorded: in some transactions, the applicable VAT may appear to be entered in reverse, though this is not necessarily an error. This can happen, for example, in cancellations or adjustments.
See the VAT Management page.
Transactions using DIV
Some transactions use a placeholder account: "DIV". When these rows are imported, a row-level error is triggered indicating that the "DIV" account does not exist in the Chart of Accounts. This account is intentionally not included in the Chart of Accounts in order to make it immediately clear which transactions use this placeholder, thereby making it easier to later replace it with the appropriate account.
In some cases, the rows containing "DIV" represent only the total of a multi-line operation. In such cases, the row can simply be deleted manually, as the detailed transactions are already present. In other cases, the placeholder is used as the counter-account of a single transaction. In these cases, "DIV" should be replaced with the correct account (usually already visible in the following transaction).
Check accounting
- Use the Balance column to check if the transactions are booked correctly.
- Perform a general check by Checking and recalculating your accounting file.

SmallInvoice - Import data .csv
SmallInvoice - Import data .csvThis extension allows you to quickly import all your data from SmallInvoice. Start by exporting your files in . csv format, then import all your information into Banana Accounting Plus.

You can import:
- The list of your Contacts
- The list of your Products
- The list of your Services
- The list of your Invoices
Follow the steps below, most of the process only needs to be done at the beginning, after which you only need to start the extension each time you want to import a file.
Export data from SmallInvoice
- Log in to SmallInvoice.
- Proceed with the export, repeating the operation for Contacts, Products, and Services.
- Go to the specific section, for example Contacts (Customer or Creditor)
- Click on Export
- Tick all the columns you use (it is better to tick all the columns).
- Choose the CSV format.
- Save the file on your computer. As soon as you have saved the file or received it by email, rename the file with the content type, e.g. "contacts.csv", "products.csv", "services.csv".
Export your invoices
- In SmallInvoice go to the "Invoices" section.
- Click on Export.
- As export type select "Detail (a row/item)".
- Under "Status" check the box "All".
- Tick all the columns you use (best to tick all).
- Choose the CSV format.
- Save the file on your computer by renaming it for example "invoices.csv".
Import your existing data
- Create a new file of type Estimates and Invoices or use an existing one.
- In the menu select Extensions->Manage Extensions
- Search for the name of the extension among the online ones and click on Install
- Start the extension from the menu Extensions > SmallInvoice - Import data .csv and select your .csv file.
- Check the changes proposed and press OK, at this point the import of your data in banana is successful.
Repeat the last two points of the list for each .csv file you want to import. Import Contacts before Invoices, the program automatically takes over the data of your contacts when you import invoices, if the invoices show a contact that does not exist in the "Contacts" table, the program may give you an error.
For importing, we recommend the use of the new Banana Plus Dev Channel version.
Messages
- Contact id not found in contact table. Did you import the contacts? It is important to import the contacts first and then the invoices, the program automatically takes the customer data from the Contacts table when you import your invoices, if the Contact id is not found within the Contacts table, the program will give an error.
- The calculated amount is different from the amount in your file, invoice nr xxx. The amount in your CSV file is different from the amount calculated by the program, this is probably due to a rounding problem, with the new version of the Estimates and Invoices application this problem will be resolved.
- You are trying to import a 'Single line' invoice, import a 'Detailed' invoice instead. You tried to import an invoice with an invalid format. When exporting invoices from SmallInvoice make sure you select the Detailed export type.
