External Transaction for TWO Different Banks

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have been configurating External Transactions by :

SPRO -> Financial Accounting -> Bank Accounting ->Business Transaction -> Payment Transaction -> Electronic Bank Statement. But Now I´m facing next scenario:

External Transaction 762 is already created and is linked to Posting Rule 006+

Posting  rule details:

Posting Key                       Gl Account          GlAccount

40                                      19100100

50                                                                  16226501

This was configurated for BANK001

Now , We have added to our Accounting BANK002

They have sent us External transactions, and they need 762 in this way

Posting Key                       Gl Account          GlAccount

40                                      19100101

50                                                                  16226503

I cannot create 762 two times for different banks owing to  this message:

An entry already exists with the same key

Message no. SV009

Diagnosis

When creating an entry, you entered a key, which already exists.

System Response

The entry cannot be created.

Procedure

Specify another key or remove the entry using the function Skip.

How Could I Create 762 for two Banks considegin GL accounts to be impacted are different?

Thanks

Hi,

No. This is configurable within the same config point as screen-shot above. In the upper left corner there is item (last) called Assign Bank account to transaction type. Open it in your system and link bank account to transaction type.

Also please close discussion properly.

Hi,

I’ve faced this dilemma with one of banks interpreting some codes slightly different than standard BAI2. Here is the solution:

In EBS config you will need

1-separate transaction type for second bank which you can copy from the one assigned to the first bank

2-create another posting rule (and posting key if needed) with appropriate GL account

3-assign external code 762 within new transaction type to the new posting rule instead of old one.
