Guna, I expect a typo in your question, the bank details are in infotype 0009 not 0005.
The changes are 'flagged' and will be processed by your next execution of your employee vendor maintenance program (or scheduled job).  If the employee has maintained 2 types of bank , It will take into account your current variant preference for bank  type (main bank versus travel expense bank). 
If your employee does not have a bank defined as per your variant settings, it will take the bank details as per the available bank defined in his current HR record.
HR changes relevant to employee vendor (like address for instance see documentation on PRAA and ALE if applicable) on which HR data (infotype) are considered for your next execution of your vendor maintenance program. This regardless of how the HR changes were caputred / transferred into your FI/AP landscape (direct updae via PA30, PRMD, ESS, LSM, .. or indirect via ALE, EDI, ...)   You can also eventually perform a 'mass' maintenance (update execution mode) when you want to apply changes to your reference vendor to your current employee vendors (this will allow all your current employee vendors to reflect your new AP policy like for instance payment terms)
