The next screen that loads will list out each Bank that needs to be re-authenticated. Review the list, unchecking any Banks you do not with to re-authenticate, then click 'Fix Issues'.

### Step 4: Re-Authenticate Each Selected Bank

The next screen will load the first selected Bank's authentication screen where you can re-input your bank credentials (and provide any necessary MFA codes / answers if necessary). Continue until each Bank has been re-authenticated.

### Step 5: Return to Bank Activity and Retrieve Activity

Once you have successfully re-authenticated, R365 Direct Bank Connections will immediately retrieve the most recent Bank Activity from your Bank. Please note that this process may take longer than the normal retrieval process as the connection is being re-established.
