Bank Account Number Validation

Hi All
Just wondering is there anyway to turn off the Bank Account Validation or a workaround my issue.
Currently we are getting this error
"please enter a value less than 8 characters for the account number"
Basically some Building Societies require us to provide them with either the Account Number and the Roll Number in the BACS file
So, we would either like to enter more than 8 by turning off the validation or if you've done this yourself, how did you get around it.
My implementation is in the UK.
Regards,
Damien

How about the Bank Roll number that is associated with Internal Bank Accounts?
Could we personalise the external Bank Account form to include this field?
We've alreayd looked at doing this but can't seem to figure out how to include it in the form

  • Bank account number is not valid

    Hi All,
    Can you please help when maintaining bank details of vendor master at the time of entering bank account number getting following error
    Bank account number is not valid
    Message no. AR124
    Please help.
    Thanks

    Note 572022 says
    Summary
    Symptom
    Although you have already implemented Notes 507186, 144764, and 310988, the system generates message AR124 (Bank account number is not valid) during the check of a Swedish bank account number.
    Other terms
    FI_CHECK_BANK_ACCOUNT_SE, FI_CHECK_BANK_DETAILS, AR124, BANK_ACCOUNT_CHECK, bank account number, Sweden
    Reason and Prerequisites
    For the check of the bank account number in Sweden, there is no unique check algorithm. The banks use different check procedures, which are not published and cannot therefore be implemented. As a consequence, you may use bank account numbers which are indeed correct, but cannot be recognized as correct.
    Solution
    If the system generates error message AR124 during the check of a bank account number, you can define this message as a warning message in Customizing (transaction OBA5). You may also completely deactivate the check of the bank account numbers for Sweden (transaction OY17, deselect the 'Bank data' field).
    thanks

  • Bank account number not valid in XK02

    Hi,
    I get a error bank account number not valid.
    Country Netherland (NL)
    IBAN - NL30CITI0105623879
    SAP propose bank account as - 0105623879. But system shows error that "Invalid bank account number".
    Debugging shows Bank account number is not valid.
    Checked in many sites, it shows that IBAN is correct. But when generation back to account number, SAP says it is wrong.
    Your suggestion is hightly appreciated.
    John

    Hi,
    Please refer SAP note 1333154 - IBAN NL: Account number not valid
    Solution
    The standard solution is to deactivate the validity check for Netherlands, or to customize the message type of the message AR 124, so that for instance a warning will appear instead of an error.
    If you still want to have the validity check active and get a warning only for invalid or "invalid" Dutch account numbers (the message type customising is unfortunately not country dependent), activate the user-exit 002 in program SAPLSSRV (function EXIT_SAPLSSRV_002).
    Then apply the attached correction. The include ZXF10U02 will then contain program code with the following functionality:
    In case of a dutch account number handle the message AR124 as a warning.

  • Enhancement for validating bank account number

    Hi,
      I have written code for validating bank account number based on bank Key.In the enhancement <b>SAPLSSRV</b>. Now i have a requirement that when the enhancement is triggered, i need to check whether the <b>account holder</b> 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 <b>account holder</b> field.   
    Regards,

    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 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Regarding Bank key and Bank account number

    Hi All,
    I have a query regarding Bank key and Bank account number.
    I want to set bank account number length as 9 digits. so I set it @ below path
    SPRO -> SAP NetWeaver-> General settings -> Set countries -> Set country specific checks.
    I tried to change the bank account number length to 9 digits from existing 10 digits using transaction FI12.
    But while changeing the bank account system throws an error like "Bank account number or bank number are not of valid length".
    Can any one suggest solution on this?
    Thanks in Advance!
    Regards,
    Nidhi

    Dear Nidhi,
    It seems that earlier bank account number contained 10 digits and then setting was changed to 9 digits that may be the cause of the error. Do one thing, go back to country setting and restore the bank account number digit to 10. Then make changes to bank account number to 9 digits. Make similar changes to all bank in your company code which has 10 digits.
    Then go to country settings and make account number digit to 9 digit which will prevent bank account number to be 10 digits created in future.

    Chintan Joshi.

  • 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.

  • Remit-To bank account number

    I have seen Remit-To bank account column in Invoice header as well as in Scheduled Payments tab in Invoice Screen. May I know the difference?. Some invoices I could see bank info at header and some invoices I could see at scheduled payments? how this is happening? Suppose If payment method is electronic and in case if bank account number is blank at the header then if we generate bank file for payment and send it across to bank, then bank will reject for this invoice right? how do we resolve this?
    from where Remit-To bank account number is populating in Scheduled Payments tab in Invoice Screen?
    I know Remit-To bank account number is populating at invoice header from supplier/site bank information.but not sure about Scheduled Payments tab in Invoice Screen.
    Appreciate if anyone explains
    Thanks!!

    Hi ramesh,
    Some of the invoices didn't have bank account number and payment process was processed. We sent payment details to bank. Finally bank rejected this file b'se of missing bank info. So payment process is not validating bank number.
    I could see some of the invoices dont have bank number at header level, but has bank number info in scheduled payments bank account number. Any idea how this happened/ how to recreate?
    Thanks!!

  • Hide or Encrypt Bank Account Number

    Hey Guys,
    The client has a requirement in FK03 to hide/encrypt the bank account number in the bank details table in the tcode FK03. 
    When using the transaction FK03, I am having a problem with hiding or encryting a user's bank account number.  When you execute the FK03 transaction, select a vendor and go to the next screen, you are then taken to the Payment Transactions Screen.  User bank account information is displayed on this screen.  I do not want the entire table hidden, but I am unable to hide or encrypt the bank account number.  I am unable to find any authorization objects to control this specific field.  Does anyone have suggestions on how to implement this?

    If all users except the accounting department may not see the number, and the accounting department must be able to see the number from the standard transactions in this application area (e.g. FK03, XK02, etc), then you will be best off looking for an enhancement point via which you can add your own coding.
    The easiest and least intrusive way in my opinion would be to find one which affects only the payment transactions screen but regardless of the transaction context, and if the user fails an authority-check of your own invention - then modify the internal table to replace the real number with a bogus one.
    But remember that if the user can debug in display mode, then they will display the internal table before you modify it, unless you DEFINE it in a macro... (but that is again intrusive, and there still are ways).
    If you choose the encrypt / decrypt route, then you will have to fight with the field types of the bank table and can still make the same mistakes... except that someone looking directly at the table via a data broowser will not see much either... (until they find the decryption function and run that).
    Please also a take a look at [SAP Note 1257033 - Cookbook: Modification/enhancement for standard SAP system|http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1257033] before proceding with an enhancement.

    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.

    You can use the following code in the include ZXPADU02.
    DATA: v_bankn TYPE bankn.
    CASE innnn-infty.
