House Banks 

Each house bank in a company code is represented in the System by a bank ID and each account maintained with a house bank is represented by an account ID.

You use the bank ID and the account ID in the System to enter bank details. These entries are used to determine the bank details for a particular payment for automatic payment transactions, for example.

Standard Configuration

Some house banks are delivered in the standard system as examples to show you how the payment program works.

For German banks, you should enter the bank number in the field “Bank key” and for other banks, you enter the SWIFT code in this field.

For Belgium, the first three characters of the house bank ID must be numeric.
