execution log table contents (containing statement ids from impacted accounts) the date the import failed the date of the transactions that are missing with this information, our will be able to retrieve your missing transactions and resync them as part of your next morning's automatic import faqs i want to change the time of day my transactions sync how do i do that? if you are on netsuite 2026 1, navigate to the format profile of your financial institution record and look for the import schedules subtab there, you can adjust the frequency, start time, and preferred time zone for your automated imports how many days' worth of data does bank feeds import upon initial setup? you can choose exactly how many days of historical data to import (up to 60 days prior) by setting the earliest transaction date for import during the setup process if you don't set a date, netsuite will automatically import up to your last 60 days of historical transactions by default can i change my "earliest transaction date" after i set it up? once your format profile is saved and the first import runs, the date you selected is locked in if you made an error, you will need to unlink and re link the bank account to select a new date i set a future start date during setup, but i don't see any transactions yet why? if you set a future date for your initial import, netsuite will pause your data sync and wait until that exact date arrives to pull the data you will not see any transactions flow into the match bank data page until that scheduled date occurs do i still need to download netsuite's bank statement parsers bundle to use bank feeds? no, this solution does not require netsuite's bank statement parsers bundle we recommend users keep this bundle installed so the option to revert your bank feeds solution to the old one is still available in case since all bank accounts are now matched under one format profile on the financial institution, what happens if an import fails on one bank account? import failures with bank feeds are rare in the case of failures, netsuite will not successfully sync transactions for all linked bank accounts until any errors, such as missing bai2 codes, have been resolved, and has re triggered a re import refer to the troubleshooting section of this guide for more details what are the differences in the data in bank feeds compared to the legacy bank feeds? the new bank feeds use bai codes, which provide more details for the transaction types for example, previously, you would only see debits and credits as transaction types in the new bank feeds, you will see more detailed transaction types such as debits, credits, ach, transfers, fees, deposits, interest, payments, and checks if i need to do a manual import, what statement type can i use? if you are utilizing bank feeds, you will only be able to use the bai2 formatting option otherwise, your manual import will fail with the error "the file could not be imported because the date is not in the correct format "
