Background documentation Notes on the Sort Sequence of Items in Bank Subaccounts  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

If bank subaccounts that are usually posted to by the payment program (for example, the account for foreign bank transfers) have a special sort sequence, it is easier to process them when posting the bank statement.

The documents from the payment run contain, in their document header (field BKTXT), the date and identification number (for example, 19940301-ID) of the run. You can have the system automatically transfer this information to the Assignment field in the line item if you define a corresponding item sorting rule and enter this in the G/L account master record.

Subsequently, when entering a bank statement, via the Assignment field, you can select all the foreign transfers from a certain payment run in order to clear them.
