Documentation
Definition
Additional specification for the customer/vendor bank details.
Use
In some countries, in order to be able to use certain payment transactions, extra specifications must be made for the customer/vendor's bank details (bank number, bank account number, name of the account holder). These additional specifications are defined here.
Procedure
If additional data for the bank details is needed for payment transactions in your country (see the following examples), enter the reference information here.
Examples
If the bank requires the collection authorization reference number for bank collection in Norway or Great Britain, you specify that number here.
When making payments to a building society account in Great Britain, you must specify which number the payee has at the building society. You make this entry in the reference field, and the bank key and account number fields are used for the bank details of the building society.
Further notes
In Great Britain, if you enter a building society account number here, its name must already be defined in the system.
