Mark Bank for Deletion - FI06

 

When To Do This

Perform this procedure when a bank is no longer being used.  Once a bank is marked for deletion the bank record will be deleted the next time the third party bank data is loaded. 

Business Process Overview

If a bank no longer exists or is no longer needed for any activity processed by the company, it should be marked for deletion in the system.  This avoids confusion over which information is current if a bank is reloaded with a new name and/or information and keeps the system data clean.

Key Notes

·         If a user displays a bank marked for deletion using transaction code FI03, the system displays the message: "Bank XXXXXXXX marked for deletion in country XX".

·         If the bank's complete information has changed as a result of a merger or acquisition transaction, the next third party information load should contain and load the bank's new information.
