We recently had an issue when uploading the xml file to our bank that is generated through the BACS run, where some one had accidentally added too many numbers to the account number.

Looking at the payment address on the supplier record I can see the creditor account and clearing system member id field is not limited to 8 & 6 characters, is there a way of doing this or will it be a matter of creating an custom event to stop the user inputting more than 8 & 6 characters for these fields?

 

Hi @mlcscottonn 

These fields are global for every payment type (BACS or SEPA or WIRE). There is no limitation based on clearing system identification code (which is I suppose GBDSC in your case).

You can consider a custom event think.

Hope this helps

 


Hi @mlcscottonn 

unfortunately you can’t restrict the limit of the characters. We had a similar issue with ISO20022. We’ve created a custom event to prevent it.
