Batch Processing

Upload unlimited bank statement PDFs simultaneously. Automatic account detection separates checking, savings, and credit cards. Parallel processing completes 10-20 accounts in minutes instead of hours. Perfect for businesses with multiple accounts and bookkeepers managing multiple clients.

Importing multiple bank accounts at once means uploading and processing all your bank statement PDFs simultaneously rather than one at a time. Instead of importing Account 1, waiting for it to finish, then starting Account 2, you upload all accounts together and they process in parallel. With Zera Books, businesses with 5-20 bank accounts can complete their entire month-end import in 10-15 minutes - a task that traditionally takes 3-5 hours.

The key advantage is parallel processing combined with automatic account detection. Upload checking accounts, savings accounts, credit cards, and business accounts all in one batch. Zera Books Multi-Account Support automatically identifies each unique account, separates transactions, and creates organized Excel/CSV files ready for import to QuickBooks, Xero, or your accounting software.

Batch Import Quick Takeaways:

  • Unlimited batch size: Upload 5, 10, 20+ statements at once - no processing limits
  • Parallel processing: All accounts convert simultaneously - 10 accounts finish as fast as 1
  • Auto-account detection: System identifies each unique account and separates them automatically
  • Multi-account PDFs handled: If one PDF contains checking + savings, both are separated automatically
  • Mixed bank formats supported: Upload Chase, Wells Fargo, BofA together - all recognized correctly
  • Organized export: Each account gets its own labeled Excel/CSV file for easy import

With Zera Books, businesses managing 10 bank accounts save 3-4 hours monthly compared to sequential import. The platform's Multi-Account Support detects and separates accounts automatically, while Zera OCR maintains 99.6% extraction accuracy across the entire batch. Bookkeeping firms processing 40+ client accounts monthly report saving 15-20 hours per month-end close using batch import.

"We were drowning in bank statements from two provinces and multiple revenue streams. Zera Books cut our month-end reconciliation from three days to about four hours."

Manroop's bookkeeping firm manages multiple business entities across two provinces, each with 2-3 bank accounts. Before Zera Books, month-end reconciliation meant processing 15-20 statements sequentially - a 3-day ordeal. With batch import and Multi-Account Support, they now upload all statements at once and complete reconciliation in approximately 4 hours.
