Hi Peter. You give up easily! I was hoping to go ahead, but am finding this difficult. Do you need to have accounting expertise to do this? For instance, I uploaded a short statement and it could not recognize the amounts of what they represeanted. The ‘fix’ for it, didn’t really seem to work either, even though I followed the steps. It suggested that I was transferring from my company to a ‘current account’ but I don ot know what that current account is….

    I assume that this is just a sample for verification and that I do not need to continue to upload these on a regular basis. Does the system actually link with my Bank? I didn't see any confirmation that it had...

    Ah. I am with Vancity in Vancouver, Canada. It's a credit union. Will that work or would I be better using Quickbooks for this financial year (starting 1 October)?

    Ha.
    It links with US bank accounts. Europe isn't setup for syncing.
    The scrapping software Xero and Wave use isn't secure. So we avoided using it.

    We've no control over Plaid.com and they're integration I'm afraid.
    How come you're not on Wave. I thought all Canadians use Wave?.

    Hope that helps.
