Working with Banks (WBNK)

Purpose: Use the Banks function to:

• add or maintain bank codes and their descriptions

• indicate the transit number associated with the bank

• define the G/L account number to which cash transactions with this bank post

• define the currency for the bank, if you process orders in multiple currencies

• define the inbound and outbound reconciliation programs, if you send and receive refund check information to and from a bank

If using multiple currencies by offer: The bank code is key to your setup if you process orders in multiple currencies. The system determines that you intend to process orders in multiple currencies if the Multi Currency by Offer (E03) system control value is set to Y.

When processing orders in multiple currencies, you must create a separate bank for each currency you intend to use, including your local currency.

If using alternate currency pricing: You must create a separate bank for each currency you intend to use if you enable alternate currency pricing (the Use Alternate Currency Pricing (H89) system control value is set to Y). A currency code is required for each bank.

Processing refunds: Each time you create a refund record, the system associates the refund with the appropriate bank.
