Immerse yourself in a redesigned LYNKS Dashboard, offering a holistic view of your financial landscape, including accounts, balances, payments, and cashflow evolution.
Designed to provide the most effective overview of the financial situation, accounts, balances, payments and cashflow evolution. Split into dedicated sections, the new LYNKS dashboard offers a comprehensive overview, allowing you to conveniently access and review the following information in the redesigned widgets:
-
Current financial situation (exchange rate applied) section previews effectively the aggregated yesterday’s closing balance, yesterday’s amount of executed payments, yesterday’s incoming payments and finally today’s amount of planned payments via LYNKS.
-
The Bank accounts widget summarises your integrated accounts by currency while indicating the previous opening and latest balance and the evolution.
-
Credit transfers shows an overview of the credit transfers in various states indicating dependencies of not approved counterparties.
-
Counterparties shows an overview of the counterparties that need some attention to be reviewed.

Cashflow evolution is a chart by ordering party that displays the past -outgoing and incoming- payments (LYNKS and non LYNKS) with balances, the present day and a forecast of the future with upcoming payments scheduled for the next 7 days.

A user with access to multiple LYNKS tenants is now empowered to use the Authenticator app as one same authentication method to access and manage requests for all his tenants. While managing requests you are always aware for which tenant the request was initiated.

LYNKS integrates with ECB Foreign Exchange, facilitating the conversion of amounts to the tenant's base currency or an ordering party's default currency. The conversion is only an estimation conducted by applying the known daily exchange rates from ECB. The payment conversion is ultimately completed on the bank's end, and it typically requires approximately 2 days to be processed.
Inside LYNKS the symbol (≈) indicates that exchange rates were applied to calculate the balance or amount displayed by the interface.

LYNKS enables the creation of payments with correspondent bank details, either by inserting the BIC in the creation modal or by uploading a payment file including the correspondent bank BIC.

Two new notifications are introduced to provide a better feedback to the creator of a payment, informing that payments were not executed either because they were rejected by the bank with a NACK, by a user or because they were pending execution for over 7 days and LYNKS did not receive a proof of execution.
Example - Notification for rejected payment
Example - Notification for pending execution for 7 days
For an improved overview of the funds, the tool now displays a calculated balance of the ordering party accounts when manually creating payments, considering the last known balance, and planned outgoing transactions.

API endpoints have been added for managing accounts, account groups, account statements, and payment categories. See the full reference here: https://docs.lynks.lu/reference.
Inserting the IBAN on the UI now automatically derives the BIC with additional validations, enhancing efficiency. Validations are run on the country codes, the structure of the IBAN, the checksum and additional conditions imposed by swift per country. The BIC can be manually overwritten and edited during the creation process or afterwards. IBAN and BIC combinations still need to be unique in the system.
Enhancements to improve the overview with new columns in the accounts list, displaying incoming and outgoing transactions, as well as balances by default. This redesigned default view provides a comprehensive first glance of the state of your accounts. As usual the columns and views can be arranged and saved in a custom view.
