The Bank workspace allows you to manage all transactions imported into Dext — from bank statements, Bank feeds, or your accounting software.

Important: Only Admin users can access the Bank workspace. This includes accountants and bookkeepers accessing a client account.


The three areas in the Bank workspace

The Bank workspace is divided into three sections:

  • Transactions

  • Statements

  • Accounts

You select which bank account to view using the bank account dropdown in the top right.

The Statements section is where you manage uploaded bank statements. It contains two tabs: Processed and Collected.

Processed statements

The Processed tab shows bank statements that have been successfully extracted.

You can filter by bank account using the dropdown in the top-right corner, or by Source ID using the filter icon next to the bank account selector.

Collected statements

The Collected tab shows statements that are currently being extracted, and statements that were rejected.

If a statement is rejected, you can hover over the Rejected status to see the reason. You are not charged for rejected statements. For help resolving rejections, go to Why was my bank statement rejected in Dext?.

From here you can:

You can filter statements by bank account using the bank account dropdown in the top-right corner.


Accounts

The Accounts page provides an overview of all bank accounts in a Dext account, whether they were added manually, connected via bank feed, or imported through an accounting software integration. Dext highlights any accounts that require your attention.

Accounts page in the Bank workspace showing a list of connected bank accounts with status, bank name, account number, currency, source, and Manage options.

By default, the following information is displayed:

  • Bank account name

  • Bank or integration name

  • Account number (last four digits)

  • Currency

  • Last closing date

  • Last closing balance

  • Source of the account

  • Last sync date

Selecting anywhere on a bank account row opens the Transactions page filtered for that account. You can customise the columns shown by selecting the cog icon in the top right.
