IBAN Code error

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I am copying a Foreign compay's Bank Account to our Indian Company's Bank account and changing the Country and Currency only. The bank account number, swift number, acc key remains same.

While updating the IBAN No. it is not allowing to generate.

The Error shows as "The Bank country and ISO code of the IBAN are not identical". Message No.BF00025.

How to rectify this error in 4.6c ?

Expecting help and guidelines from the experts.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Hi,

in the IBAN the 2 digits after the country code are the check digits of the whole IBAN; if you want to know more about this, please search in google with keywords "IBAN CHECK DIGITS".

In SAP the FM is CALCULATE_IBAN_CHECK_DIGIT.

Hi,

As per Note, I have created new BTE and assigned to IN.

Now the IBAN is generated automatically for Indian Company Code and It's Bank. I have one more problem.

As per IBAN logic, Country Code will be first two digiits; then Bank Key & Bank Number will be continue four digits; Control Key will be the last digit.

In my case, after Country Code, there is two digit is automatically created and it is not relevant to Bank Master Data.

For example: IN Country Code; 12345678 Bank Key; 1 Control Key.

The IBAN should be IN12 3456 781

Here, after INXX thses two digits are created automatically based on the Control Key. If I am changing the Control Key No.2 then this two digits also changing.

Can any guide me what is relation ship between Control Key and these two digits? How it can tracked and rectified?

Expecting help and guidelines.

Hi,

The new bank account created with Account ID, A/c No, Key etc., Not copied the other country's bank now.

If a bank acoount belongs to one country, it doens't belong to another country. So copying the bank account and changing the country has no sense.

The Bank a/c no and key entered. As per digit logic IBAN number entered for testing. Erros shows as "IBAN no is not correct".

I checked Note.392091 - it is a country-specific BTE functions. As per note the following 2 new Business Transaction Events to be created for Indian Co. Code.

00003030 IN CONVERT_BANK_ACCOUNT_2_IBAN_IN

00003040 IN CONVERT_IBAN_2_BANK_ACCOUNT_IN

Then only IBAN can extend to other bank countries.

Is it Correct?

If you don't understand what is a bank account, don't try to enter it in SAP.

IBAN is country specific and the length varies accordingly.

It starts with 2 Digit Country Code, followed by Bank Branch and Account Number.

For full details, refer Link: [http://www.iban-rechner.eu/ibancalculator/iban.html#format], it might help.
