House Bank Number (US)

[Former Member]

We have IS-Utillities but our Financial System is not SAP. We received payments from banks and non-banking institutions. Looking at the House Bank configuration in SAP (transaction code FI12), these non-banking institutions that we receive payments from were configured to have "Bank Key".

I played with the possible values for this field and it is using "modulus 10" thru function module FI_CHECK_BANK_NUMBER_US to validate the Bank Key value.

How do you determine the bank key of a non-banking instituion? Where is this coming from?

If it helps, my company is in the US and we receive payments from CheckFree, APS, etc.

Thanks gurus...

I'm not sure about your requirement from your query.

However, there are few settings in SAP that determines the validataion checks.

They are :

IMG\General Settings\Set countries\Set Country specific checks.

Here for your country, say US, you can detemine the checks for Banks as well as Post offices.

Also @ IMG\Bank Accounting\Bank Accounts\Check post office bank branch numbers, you can configure your field length.

Hope this helps?

Hi,

The function module FI_CHECK_BANK_NUMBER_US is customized in table TBE31, this function module only validats standard US bank numbers, if you want a new validation for a specific set of bank or other instututions maybe you should create a customer function where you will cann the standard FI_CHECK_BANK_NUMBER_US for normal bank instututions and another one to perfomr you spcific validations. You must then customize you customer function in table TBE31 replacing the standard one.
