Where do I find the CID setting in Catacloud?
Go to Administration → Module settings → Invoicing. Under the Delivery and payments section you'll find the toggle for CID number.
Note that costs may apply when activating and using CID.
Why do I get an error message when I try to activate CID?
Catacloud can only create a new CID agreement if there isn't already an active agreement with the bank. If you're coming from another accounting system and already have a CID agreement there, you'll get the following error message when you click Activate KID:
This happens because the bank has already registered an agreement with another system as the data recipient. Catacloud sees this agreement and can't create a new one as long as it exists.
What do you need to do?
You have two options:
Option 1: Deactivate CID in the previous system, then activate in Catacloud
Log in to the previous accounting system and deactivate the CID/OCR agreement there.
Wait a few days until the bank has updated and the agreement has been removed.
Go back to Catacloud (Administration → Module settings → Invoicing → CID number) and turn on the toggle – this should now work without an error message.
NB: It can take 1–3 business days from when you deactivate in the other system until the bank is synchronized. Feel free to try again the next day if it doesn't work right away.
Option 2: Send a registration form to the bank
If you don't have access to deactivate CID in the previous system, or you want to move the agreement directly, you must send a registration form to the bank.
This is also necessary if you want to have multiple CID agreements (you can have up to 3 agreements in total).
Fill in the form with the following information:
Data recipient (item 11): 00227283 (Catacloud)
Modulus: Mod 10
CID length: 16 (incl. check digit)

Send the completed form to your bank.
Example of how to fill in the form
Customer: Your company name
Org. no.: Your organization number
Account number: Your account number
Data recipient/Customer unit ID: 00227283 (Catacloud)
CID length: 16
Modulus: 10
