Business Scenario

As the new bank will be processing payments, the created bank must also be defined as your company's house bank.

How to Manage Bank Accounts
House Banks
When you create a new house bank, you assign the bank country and bank key of an existing bank master record. Through this assignment, the house bank automatically copies the relevant information, control, and address data from the original bank master record. House bank data includes bank master data, information for electronic payment transactions, Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) partner profiles, and Data Medium Exchange (DME) details.
In addition, the automatic payment program uses the house bank ID to determine which bank to use for payments.
