Bank Feeds allow your settled bank transactions to automatically flow into Xero's Bank Reconciliation module. This eliminates the need to manually export and import bank statements.

**NOTE:** If you are connected to a Xero Demo Company, the Bank Feeds solution will not be accessible. This is due to a restriction within Xero that prevents bank feed connections for demo environments.

### Select Accounts

Navigate to the Bank Feeds Setup page to view your mapped accounts. This page shows all accounts, whether they're connected to bank feeds or not.

### Configure Sync Date

A pop-up will appear listing the accounts you have chosen to enable. Here, you can specify the date from which transactions should begin syncing to Xero Bank Reconciliation.

If you do not select a date, we will push all available transaction data from the bank.

Confirm **Start Sync From** date, and click **Yes, Enable Selected Accounts**.
