Increase of length for bank a/c

[Former Member]

Currently we are running TT payments for overseas vendors who have bank a/c exceeding the maximum length eg. China based on ISO is 18 digits but the bank a/c is 19 digits. Is it possible to increase? How we handle the idoc file. What's are tasks to be carried out?

Kindly advise

Hi Veronica,

Try t.code OY17 as referred in OSS Notes 389649

also there is OSS# 115002 DME for house bank account numbers w/more than 18 digits

<i><b>China</b>

- Different account number formats in part with more than 18 digits

- Save the first 18 digits in the 'Bank account number' field

- If the Chinese bank account number is longer than 18 digits,

then save the remaining digitsin the 'Reference specifications for bank details' field</i>

Hope this helps.
