Bank Account Validation by Country
Payables provides country specific validation of your bank account information for bank branches in your "Home country". Payables displays a warning if you enter invalid information. You define your "home country" in the Member State field of the VAT Information region of the Financials Options window. If the Country you enter in the Banks window is different from your "home country," Payables performs the default, minimum validation. The default validation checks the data type and maximum length of the bank account name, account, and currency code.
The following are the country specific validation rules for your bank account information. If your country is not listed separately, the default minimum validation will be used.
To set up your system for bank account validation:
1. Define the Default Country profile option.
2. Define Countries and Territories and assign VAT Member State codes in the Countries and Territories window.
3. Enter your VAT member state code in the Financials Options window.
4. When you define the bank accounts, optionally enter Check Digits.
Payables performs the validation when you save bank account information.
