Steps to Create a Bank Account:

-
Fill in Mandatory Fields: Complete all mandatory fields in the bank creation form. The following fields are usually required:

- Bank Name: Provide the official name of the bank.
-
Save the Bank Details: After entering the necessary information, click the "Save" button to create the bank account in SAP.
Important Considerations:
- Ensure that the bank key is unique within the specified country to avoid conflicts.
- Double-check all entered information for accuracy before saving.
- Depending on your SAP configuration, additional fields may be mandatory. Refer to your company's SAP documentation or consult with your SAP administrator for specific requirements.
- You may need specific authorization roles within SAP to create bank master data.
