“Bank statement ID number non-existent” when importing Bank statement in Sage Cashbook

Error

Bank statement ID number non-existent

Solution

1.Go to Common data>BP Accounting tables>Bank accounts

2.Enter the Bank ID Number under General management Tab>Bank ID Number

3.The Bank ID number must be 16 digits

4.If the Bank ID number from the statement is less than 16 digits zeros must be added before the Account number to make them 16.

For example, if the Bank ID Number is 8 digits “23635752“  eight zeros are supposed to be added to make it 16 characters  0000000023635752
