Bank Account number in IT0009 for Switzerland more than 18 digits

Dear Experts,
I encountered a problem when trying to create a bank account number in IT0009 for Switzerland. Because this Swtizerland bank account number is 21 digits which exceeded the current bank account number field length which is 18 digits only.
Thanks.

Yen

Dear Ram Manohar,
          Thanks a lot for your reply. Before this I thought of putting the additional 3 digits in 'reference detail' field too. But the field 'reference detail' is not being showed at all when I change the bank key to 'CH' Switzerland.
          Please advice if there's any other way to store the additional 3 digits of bank account number?
          Thanks.
Regards,
Yen

SAP EBS error - Same Bank Account number for 2 different Account ids

Hi,
My client maintained the same Bank Account number for 2 different Account Id's within the same housebank.
He has maintained Account id HELCO ( Local cheques) and HEICO ( International Cheques) and assigned same Account Number for both in the same house bank.
I am getting error " "same bank account exists in several company codes -> see long text, Message FB757" while uploading EBS file ( BAI2 format) due to this..
How do I resolve the issue.
Why is SAP allowing to maintain same bank account nos for different account id's?

Hi Aravind
I too faced this kind of situation when i am dealing with multi cash format file
As far as i know when you are dealing with EBS, system will check account key and account number that is present in the bank file
Please check the entries in T012K table with bank key and bank account number
You should not have more than one entry with the combination and i am surprised that even though you have different bank key for the same account number you got this message..
I request you to check the T012K table entries and make sure that no duplicate entries exists with the bank key and bank account number combination

FI12 - Swiss/Switzerland Post Bank Account Number

Hi All,
Please will someone help be to overcome the following problem:
My UK client has a subsidiary in Switzerland (ctry code CH) & I'm creating some dummy demo data for a presentation.
After creating a company based in Switzerland, in FI12 I created a house bank with currency EUR. After entering Account ID and currency EUR I cannot enter a dummy bank account number because I do not know the correct format.
Error message 'Hyphen is in incorrect position in post office bank current account no.' AR117 appears.
I checked in NetWeaver- Check country specific checks for 'CH'. There is a check for Post bank account number for maximum value length, without gaps u2013 but there is no mention of hyphens.
Please will someone tell me where I can check where the hyphen(s) should be in the Swiss post bank account number.
Apologies for posting such a long message and thanks in advance.
Melinda

Hi Melinda,
Please check if you have note 1248767 implemented. Also check the following information:
A Postfinance account number has a structure similar to 12-123456-1,
so there is always at least one separator.
Should the account numbers be presented in the non-post format, which
means a string up to 16 characters, the bank in the bank master must
not have the 'Postbank' sign activated (BNKA-XPGRO). Or the account
number validity check has to be deactivated for Switzerland
(transaction OY17, country CH, 'Further Checks', parameter 'Bank data').
There is not know new requirement regarding the handling of Postfinance
account numbers. Without the separators the validity check would not
be possible.
If you need to write the account numbers in a DME file without the
separators, and do not want to deactivate the validity check,
you can enhance the DME format to filter it out.
Also check note 109589.

Bank Account number duplication in IT0009

Dear Team,
We want to stop the Bank Account number duplication in IT0009.
This is regarding the updating the Infotype 0009 for a personnel number in PA30. While updating a bank account number for any employee, system has to check whether the same bank account number is updated in the database for any other employee or not so that we can stop updating the same account number to different employees.
Please let me know how to address this.
Kind Regards
Nag

Hi Nag,
You can use the following code in the include ZXPADU02.
DATA: v_bankn TYPE bankn.
CASE innnn-infty.
WHEN '0009'.
    SELECT SINGLE bankn FROM pa0009
      INTO v_bankn
     WHERE bankn = innnn-data1+113(18).
    IF sy-subrc = 0.
      MESSAGE 'Bank Account is already assigned' TYPE 'E'.
    ENDIF.
ENDCASE.

Bank Account Number Creating in IT0009

Dear All.
I have facing problem one my employee left from organizational on dated :01.09.2011 & rejoined from dtd: 21.10.2011 (Newly hired), So when i gone to create the his account number in IT0009 that time system was showing " This Bank account number is already existence". So please suggest me what i can change in system & how can i solved it.?
Please reply any one urgent..
Satish.

Hi Satish,
What my guess & understanding at this stage is,
There is a validation on master data entries for this particular info type to avoid in proper assignment of one employee account number to another employee like that. A BADI might be used to give the @this table level validation.
Get the Badi and do further condition along with Bank Key & Account number validations, if Possible.
Second, Try with info type attributes
Time constrains for info type 9 is T which means depends on time constrains class of sub type of that info type.and check the Possibilities with Display and selection dates, Try with the subtype info type attributes also..
P.S Do the proper activity and through testing.

Enhancement for validating bank account number

Hi,
I have written code for validating bank account number based on bank Key.In the enhancement SAPLSSRV. Now i have a requirement that when the enhancement is triggered, i need to check whether the account holder field is entered or not in the transaction.
But in the enhancement i have only BANK_ACCOUNT, BANK_CONTROL_KEY, BANK_COUNTRY and BANK_NUMBER as the import parameters, no more changing or tables parameters.
i.e., i dont get account holder name as input. Is there any way to capture the account holder field.
Regards,
Vidya.

Hello,
Go for BADI's,
Follow the below steps to find out what all BADI's are called when you press any button in any transaction.
1) Goto se24 (Display class cl_exithandler)
2) Double click on the method GET_INSTANCE.
3) Put a break point at Line no.25 (CASE sy-subrc).
Now
4) Execute SAP standard transaction
5) Press the required button for which you need to write an exit logic, the execution will stop at the break point.
6) Check the values of variable 'exit_name', it will give you the BADI name called at that time.
7) This way you will find all the BADIs called on click of any button in any transaction.

Bank account number & Bank number structure for Chile

Hi,
Does anybody know how the Bank number & Bank account number structure is?
I do need to create a module for banks field (because it is not delivered in standard SAP). Does anybody do it before?
Thanks a lot

Dear Rafael,
Please check the following details for the Country Chile, which is as per the TCode 'OY17' :
Bank number length 15
Tax Number 1 11
Length of Bank Key 15
Besides, you also should check the box 'Other Data' which will take care of the internal check.
On the other hand, Conversion of bank details to IBAN is carried out by function module CONVERT_BANK_ACCOUNT_2_IBAN_<2 characters country code>. For example, for CHILE, the function module will be CONVERT_BANK_ACCOUNT_2_IBAN_CH.
For this, two function modules and two Business Transaction Events (BTEs) are to be created for each country:
1. Copy the SAMPLE_INTERFACE_00003030 function module from SAMPLE_INTERFACE_00003030 to
 CONVERT_BANK_ACCOUNT_2_IBAN_??, in which you must replace the '??' with your country's name.
2. Copy the SAMPLE_INTERFACE_00003040 function module from SAMPLE_INTERFACE_00003040 to
 CONVERT_IBAN_2_BANK_ACCOUNT_??, in which you must replace the '??' exactly as above.
I hope this information is useful.
Best regards,

Few countries bank Account Number is mandatory and for few others it is not

For few countries bank Account Number is mandatory and for few others it is not mandatory in the Payment Transaction Tab in Bank Details of Customer.
My question is that why will anyone not fill bank account number when he has given Bank Key and other details.
Is it related to Payment by other methods , other by Cash.

Hi Ranjeet,
You should ask this question to the person who has information about bank details but not process them.
Yes bank account is related with payment transactions. If you want you can make this field mandatory in customizing;
SPRO-Financial Accounting-Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable-Customer Accounts-Master Data-Preparations for Creating Customer Master Data-Define Account Groups with Screen Layout (Customers) or Define Screen Layout per Company Code (Customers) or Define Screen Layout per Activity (Customers)
You can also set message F2813 (Enter an account holder) as error in customizing;
SPRO-Financial Accounting-Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable-Customer Accounts-Master Data-Preparations for Creating Customer Master Data-Change Message Control for Customer Master Data

Bank account number field in Infotype 0009

Deal All,
My client's requirement is that in IT0009 the length of Bank account number (BANKN) needs to be increased for a particular affiliate. Currently the length is 18 Character and my client wants to increase it to character 20 for a particular affiliate.
Can anyone please let me know is it possible to do it. If it is not possible then what can be the other alternatives to met the requirement and the impacts of the alternatives.
Thanks & Regards,
Sandip Biswas.

Dear Sandip,
Please refer to SAP Note 193078 - Employee/applicant bank details in Russia.
Maybe it is nor specific for your case but SAP recommends to maintain first two digits in Bank key field.
Please make sure whether this solution works for your case.

"entry in field bank account number is longer than 10 characters"

Hello Sap Experts,
The user is getting an error on saving the bank infotype. (0009). The user is trying to create a IT0009 for an international assignee.The error is "entry in field bank account number is longer than 10 characters.
The default characters allowed maximum specified in the technical field is 18 characters. The abaper also checked and confirmed that it is specified as 18 characters.
This is only for a single employee.
Please provide your suggestions.
Thanks
Jyothsna

Jyothsna,
You need to extend Bank Account number length....even though 18 will be the max length..by default assignment of length will be different from country to country. So you need to extend the length of Bank a/c number in trasaction OY17.....select the country and change the bank a/c number length to 18 and Checking rule to 5 max value length.

Bank Account Number is 22 characters

Dear Friends,
We are working in 4.6V. The Country is GB or Great Britain. In the configuration the bank account no is 18 characters.
As i know, Bank account number cannot more than 18 characters.
Is there any scope to increase the bank account number field to 22 characters?
Please advise.
For ECC 6.0, Can we input bank account number which has 22 characters?
All the help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Sridhar

Hi Sridhar
Usually it is not recommended to increase the length of the characters for bank account numbers. But if you have the authorization and need, then goto OY17 and change the length as per requirements.
Also, the usual way people tackle a similar problem for Chinese companies is by adding the remaining digts/characters in the Bank Key section or in the Reference Field ... This is a solution if OY17 does not help you.
All the best!
Regards

Bank Account Number length

Hi All,
I need to update a bank account number in transaction FI12. Reducing the number of digits from 11 to 10 digits, but every time I do it I got the error message:
Bank account number or bank number are not of valid length - AR212.
I already made some tests in transaction OY17 changing some country specific checks, but I still get the same error message.
Does anybody has an idea what the problem can be?
I already delete the bank account and try to recreate it, also did the same creating a new house bank, but also get the same error message.
Thank you so much for any help.

Sealed Air Corp

If the issue is related to "bank account number" length, you should change the "bank account number" length in OY17 as per your requirement. You mentioned in your previous replies that you tried changing the "bank number" length in OY17, which will not help.
You are correct; post bank acct no. is in some European countries (Switzerland, for example), so changing that will not help MX.
Please also take a look at the following SAP Notes.

Masking a bank account number in a DFF (R12)

we have bank account numbers stored in a DFF in Payables on the Supplier record (additionally due to specific requirements). Is there a way to 'mask' the number that it is not available/visable when a user queries the Supplier record where the DFF is available?
Thanks
