Banking Direct Processing (EBICS)

Download, process, and schedule EBICS bank file handling for Odoo Community workflows.

Developed by 2BIT Digital GmbH — your Swiss Odoo partner for payroll, accounting, eCommerce, manufacturing and custom business solutions.

Finance teams can process downloaded EBICS files immediately and schedule recurring EBICS downloads for routine bank file handling.

The module extends the EBICS transfer wizard with direct processing and administrator-controlled scheduled job creation.

Business Impact

Why You Need This Module

Daily bank file work should not depend on a user manually downloading files and then remembering to process them afterwards.

Direct processing and scheduled downloads reduce repetitive bank administration while keeping control inside Odoo.

Which Problems It Solves

• Manual processing required after EBICS downloads
• Repeated daily setup of the same EBICS download parameters
• Payment order uploads that need additional safeguards before sending

Key Benefits For Finance Operations

• Immediate processing of downloaded EBICS files when requested
• Reusable scheduled downloads for regular bank file retrieval
• Less repetitive manual EBICS administration

How It Works

• Open the EBICS download wizard and enable Direct Processing when downloaded files should be processed right away.
• Use Schedule Job as a system administrator to create a recurring download with the selected configuration, user, date range and file format.
• For uploads, the module validates that upload data is present before sending payment orders.
