SAP FICO ACCOUNTS PAYABLE Issue-17

Issue No.: 17
A vendor has requested that charges for services and materials be paid through separate bank accounts. For example, Vendor X supplies both services and materials and maintains two bank accounts—one for services and another for materials. The vendor requests that your client pay for services through bank account XXXXX and materials through bank account YYYYY. Is this possible when payments are made through an APP?

A vendor may have multiple bank accounts. The SAP system provides the functionality to store and use information from multiple vendor bank accounts in the Payment transactions screen of the vendor master general data via transaction code FK03.

You can use the BnkT (bank type) field in the vendor master to enter text differentiators for identifying the vendor's bank accounts. If you leave the bank type field blank for a bank account in the vendor master, it serves as the default bank if the bank type information is missing in the vendor invoice.

In this situation, you maintain information on both banks through the identifiers XXXXX and YYYYY. While entering the vendor invoice for services, select bank identifier XXXXX and for materials, select YYYYY. Now when you are paying through an APP, you will find you are remitting payment to two different bank accounts for the vendor for different services.
