RUNBOOK · zoho-books/bank-feeds-not-updating4 FIXES

// quick answer

Zoho Books normally refreshes feeds when you log in, but banks with multi-factor authentication block automatic fetching. Refresh feeds manually from the bank account's Settings icon and complete the bank's verification; reconnect the account if refresh is missing.

Most likely fix: Refresh feeds manually
