Hi

You need to maintain it because of the following reason:

The alternative bank account number is used for distinguishing house bank accounts with identical account numbers. This can occur if a house bank manages accounts in different currencies using the same account number.

The alternative bank account number must then only be defined if it differs from the bank account number. You must maintain it together with the bank key in the system.

If you have house bank accounts with identical account numbers and use the electronic account statement for these accounts, then you enter the internal key used by your house bank here (usually the account number with attached currency encryption). If you use the manual account statement, then you can freely assign the alternative account number. Using bank account number + currency code is, however, recommended.

Hope this is useful
