How to use banking and payment formats in Business Central
Banking and payment formats can change over time and vary by country/region and bank. To help you connect to your bank and handle transactions in Business Central, Microsoft works with partners who provide apps that support different formats and integrations.
In some countries/regions, Microsoft also provides built-in imports and export options. However, these options aren't adapted to newer versions of the formats, unless the bank requires it. Also, there will be no development of new banking and payment-related formats. This affects the country/region localizations of Business Central that Microsoft releases. For a list of local versions, see list of localizations here.
