You use external bank operation codes to identify the different types of payment transactions recorded by a bank that appear in a bank statement. Each bank may provide a list of these codes. In some countries, the national bank publishes one list of codes that is used by all other banks.

In the External Bank Operation Codes window, you can align external bank operation codes with relevant internal bank operation codes. This enables SAP Business One to identify the different types of transactions that appear in the bank statement and to create the corresponding transactions. You can define more than one list of codes.
