Bank account length

Hello friends,
We are having problems when assigning a bank account to a vendor in transaction FK01.
We are migrating from another system which has settings for country specific checks for bank accounts (trx OY17) . In theory, this means that for DE, the bank account should have 14 numbers. However, in their system they are able to create vendors and assign german banks with accounts less than 14 numbers. We need to create these vendors, but the country check comes into effect (we have customised this part exactly the same)
Does anybody know if there is another customizing point which allows you to ignore the country sepcific checks?we have checked and they don't have any validations/user exits for this.
thank you
Stephen

Hi
Try for customized userexit.

  • BP bank account checking

    I would like to perform country specific check on bank account:
    e.g.   bank key  123      bank account length 11-12
             bank key 234      bank account length  10-12
             other key            bank account key length 6-12
    Where I can create this validation in CRM if I'm not using BUPT?
    Is it possible to issue warning message for a specific condition?
    Thanks for your advise

    Hi,
    You can put a validation check in the DO_PREPARE_OUTPUT or DO_VALIDATE_INPUT method of the view where you have those fields.

  • 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.

    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.

  • How to control Bank Account Number Length based on different countries?

    Using eBs 11.5.10
    We noticed that the bank account number when updated in under a bank within Austria pads extra zeroes in the beginning to ensure length is always 11. However, this padding of zeroes does not occur in a bank within United Kingdom.
    This leads to believe, there is some possible configurable setup that controls this validation. Please advise, where this setup is and if its configurable.
    Thanks.

    Hi Mahesh,
    If it is 19 for china then check with sap service market place or any sap notes available, otherwise you need to change the length and also you need to analyse the impact of changes in the system.

  • Automatic Payment Run - Alternate Bank Account in Vendor Master

    Dear Forum,
    We have a situation where the users want the alternate bank accounts to be maintained in the Vendor Masters and also to select this alternate bank account while doing the automatic payment run thru F110. While we can maintain more than one bank account in the Vendor Master, but how to select the alternate one during payment run. Your help would be highly appreciated.
    Regards

    Hi...
    As per your issue while runing APP in F110 once complete parameters
    And go to Edit praposal and double click vendor and double click on line items than it will displays the one more screen there select Reallocate button there you can enter your respective bank details.
    Otherwise there is a Business Transaction Event 1810. You can see the code, looks like you  need to replicate the vendor bank details with link to a company code.
    Note:
    Assign Multiple Bank Accounts in the Vendor Master
    Your SAP system provides the functionality to store and use
    information from multiple vendor bank accounts in the Payment
    transactions screen of the vendor master general data via
    transaction FK03 (Figure 1). Figure 1 reflects the bank type
    determination logic I used in the vendor master, using the
    three-digit International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
    currency code as the Bank type.
    Figure 1 Bank details vendor master
    You can use the BnkT (bank type) field in the vendor master to
    enter text differentiators for identifying the vendoru2019s bank
    accounts. If you leave the bank type field blank against a bank
    account in the vendor master, then it serves as the default bank
    if the bank type information is missing in the vendor invoice.
    You may want to leave this field blank if the vendor has only
    one bank account and you want the system to select that bank
    account for all payments.
    If the bank type is blank for multiple bank accounts, then the
    system looks for the first bank account with the blank bank type
    in the vendor master to use as the default. You are not required
    to define the text values u2014 in my example, INR, SGD, and USD u2014
    elsewhere in your SAP system. The field allows any value up to a
    length of four characters. Iu2019ll demonstrate the use of bank type
    with vendor invoice later on.
    The system performs a check at the time of invoice creation on
    the bank type value used in the vendor invoice against the bank
    type values used in the vendor master. If you have not defined
    the bank type value in the vendor master prior to using it in
    the vendor invoice, the system shows an error message. The
    system performs the check to ensure that you are using a bank
    type value in the vendor invoice against which it can find a
    bank account in the vendor master. Otherwise, the system cannot
    determine a bank account for making payments to the vendor.
    Prerequisites for Vendor Bank Selection
    You need to take care of a few configuration prerequisites before
    you can use vendor bank selection in the automated payment
    functionality.
    1. Check the Bank details check box in the payment method as
    defined at the country level in transaction FBZP. This ensures
    the selection of the bank details from the vendor master at the
    time of the automatic payment run. If you donu2019t do this, the
    system does not copy the bank details into the payment IDoc that
    it creates as a result of the automated payment run (transaction
    F110).
    2. Make the Bank Business Partners field optional in the field
    status group attached to the vendoru2019s reconciliation G/L account
    by selecting the button under Opt. Entry for this field. This
    field maps to the Part.bank type (partner bank type) field in
    the vendor invoice. If the Bank Business Partners field is not
    optional and is in a suppressed state, then you cannot input the
    partner bank type field in the vendor invoice.
    I hope it will helps you....

    Are the changes being brought in only the prefix for that vendor and to reflect the same in table  LFBK and see the field in Lifnr getting updated with the new Prefix value .
    then check this Fm ..
    BAPI_VENDOR_EDIT
    May be can write a bdc for that particular vendor(s) in XK02 or can proceed with LSMW.
    Im not sure clear with what transaction you are trying to change the  prefix value cause u need to maintain that range for the vendor in the settings Spro.

  • Vendor master data - Bank Account field len too short

    Dear Expert,
    My client trying to create a vendor when she maintains the Bank account number under the bank detail and she encounterred error message "Entry in field Bank Acct. No is longer than 10 characters" where can I extend the field to 11 characters?
    thank you

    Hi,
    Maximum length for bank account number is 18.
    The error message is because, for the country, standard SAP allows only 10 chars.
    To change this,
    1. Go to t-code OY17
    2. Change the bank account number /bank number length accordingly.

  • Vendor issues (trading partner and bank account)

    Hi Experts,
    I need your advise on the following topics
    1. we were trying to update the bank details of a vendor. However, we are going to use a 20 digits bank number for russia usually its only 18 digits (RUXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX). in the customizing in OY17 the maximum bank account number length is only 18 digits. We followed sapnote 96624 (Store the first two digits in the 'Bank control key' field and then Store the remaining digits in the 'Bank account number' field) but when trying to update the IBAN (RUXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XX) we recive an error that its not correct. Is there another way to update the IBAN with a 20digit bank account number without increasing the maximum bank account number length?
    2. we have updated the trading partner field in the vendor master. after the chnages were saved we immediately posted a document (more or less 1 minute interval) this field should have been automatically been populated but upon checking the document today trading partner in the document is blank. it only happened in this one document. please advise the possible cause of this inconsistency, how can it be traced and if there are possible correction.
    Thanks for your inputs

    Hi,
    1. adjuste FM CONVERT_BANK_ACCOUNT_2_IBAN_RU to include the control field
    2. reverse document & repost.

  • Bank account formats - checks

    Dear all,
    Does someone have any idea how I can see how the format of the bank accounts are checked in SAP? (for different bank countries)?
    I need to clean a list with bank accounts so their format is accepted by SAP when I upload them.
    Is there any possibility to do some kind of simulation check on an Excel list?
    I found T005, but that's a bit vague "maximum length without gaps = 18" not?
    How about the bank keys? How can I know if there is a logic behind the bank key structure for a certain country? How do I know which format/length the bank key needs to have?
    Thanks in advance

    This is what sap documentation for bank keys says:
    <i><b> In this field, you specify the bank key under which bank data from the   
    respective country is stored.                                                                               
    When you define the country key, you also specify the country-specific   
    definition of the bank key.                                                                               
    Normally, you manage banks using their bank number. The bank number in   
    the control data for the bank is then displayed twice, that is, as the   
    bank key too.                                                                               
    In certain countries, the bank account number takes on this function;    
    then there are no bank numbers and the bank data is managed using the    
    account number.                                                                               
    For data medium exchange, you may find it useful to be able to enter     
    foreign business partners without a bank number, even if there are bank  
    numbers in the country in question. In this case, the bank key can be    
    assigned internally.                                                                               
    To manage bank data using another key, for example, the SWIFT code,      
    external number assignment can also be used.                             </b></i>

  • 20 digits long bank account number

    Hi All,
    We have a supplier in China with a bank account having 20 digits. Unfortunately we only have 18 digits for the bank account in SAP. What configuration needs to be done to enter this 20 digits long Bank account no in the vendor master data?

    Ajitha,
    Are you in a position to use Bank Account Type (2 char) in combination with Bank Account Number (18 char)? That will give you required 20 digit number.
    Changing internal field length of a field as commonly used as Bank Account Number isn't advisable. Do you have details on what type of business (specifically banking) transactions will occur with this Vendor? May be that will help in suggesting different solution.

    Maybe it is nor specific for your case but SAP recommends to maintain first two digits in Bank key field.

  • "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.

    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.

  • Leading Zeros in bank Account for EBS

    Hi,
    We configured the bank account number with two leading zeros in the house bank.  Say for example i defined the bank account number as 0012345 Under house bank HSBC.
    When I receive the bank statement, the bank account number is coming with 12 digits i.e. will all leading zeros. say for example 000000012345.
    When i am loading the bank statement using the transaction FF_5, the system is giving the error Table "T012K does not have an entry with bank account number 12345".  The client is saying the length of account number is 7 digits and should be maintained as 0012345. However the EBS is not working with the leading zeros. How can we fix this issue?
    Regards
    Kotesh Padarti

    Hello!
    You can try to configure alternatice bank account in FI12. This is used in situations when the presentation of bank account in bank statement differs from that configured in main bank account field e.g. your house bank might provide you with the following layouts 000000012345 or 0012345USD etc. Therefore this functionality enables the system to recognize the bank account.
    Hope this will help you!
    Best Regards!

  • BAI2 - Bank Account Numbers 10 characters

    We are having an issue with the bank account number on the BAI2 format being 10 characters while the accounts numbers on the customer master are larger than 10 (13). This is causing some the payments to be applied to the wrong account. For example on the bai2 structure the bank account number is 1234567890, but should be 1234567890123
    In the customer master the there could be a bank account number of 1234567890 and 1234567890123. When the lockbox program runs the cash is applied to customer of 1234567890 which is in correct.
    SAP has a note 136065 which could be a solution, but also is a change to standard. Has anyone applied this note? Is there another solution.
    Thanks for any help.
