Documentation
Definition
A standardized, unique ID number to display bank details in accordance with the ECBS (European Committee for Banking Standards). An IBAN contains a maximum of 34 alphanumeric characters and is made up of a combination of the following elements:
- Country key for the bank (ISO code)
- Two-character check digit
- Country-specific account number
For example, in Germany, this consists of the bank number and the
account number, in France the bank number, the account number, and the control key.
Use
The IBAN makes payments across borders easier and offers advantages in some countries but also in domestic payment transactions. You can obtain value and charge advantages depending on the country.
Dependencies
The IBAN can be managed parallel to the bank details, but does not replace these. It is saved in the master data of the business partner and can be used when creating the payment medium.
As only the account-holding bank can generate the IBAN, which corresponds to an account number, the SAP system only generates a proposal. You can confirm or change this. If you do not want a proposal to be generated, enter the IBAN yourself.
Example
An IBAN in Belgium could be as follows:
Electronic form:
BE62510007547061
Printed form, as it appears on the invoice:
IBAN BE62 5100 0754 7061
