The bank account ID in SAP represents the specific account number you hold at a bank branch.
In SAP, managing bank details involves two key components: House Banks and Account IDs. Understanding the distinction is crucial:
- House Bank: This represents the bank branch itself. It stores details like the branch address, SWIFT code, and other bank-specific information.
- Account ID: According to the reference, the Account ID represents the account number in your bank branch. Multiple Account IDs can exist under a single House Bank, reflecting the different accounts your company holds at that particular branch.
Therefore, when configuring bank accounts in SAP, the Account ID field is where you enter your actual bank account number.
| Feature | Description |

| House Bank | Represents the bank branch (address, SWIFT code, etc.). |
