Symptoms

In Oracle Release 12.1
It is possible to Create at a Single Bank, More than ONE Bank Branch having
the same name but with a different Branch Number.

Using Cash Management responsibility

Create Bank
Country = <COUNTRY_1>
Bank Name = <BANK_1>

Create Branch
Bank Name = <BANK_1>
Branch Name = <BANK_BRANCH_1>

Create Another Branch
Bank Name = <BANK_1>
Branch Name = <BANK_BRANCH_1>

Error
This combination of branch name and branch number already exists for this
bank. Please check whether this branch has already been set up or the branch
name and number is valid.

Create Another Branch
Bank Name = <BANK_1>
Branch Name = <BANK_BRANCH_1>
Branch Number = <BANK_BRANCH_NUM_1>

New Branch is saved successfully.

Update First Branch
Bank Name = <BANK_1>
Branch Name = <BANK_BRANCH_1>
Change Branch Number = NULL
to
Branch Number = <BANK_BRANCH_NUM_2>

Saved

Therefore it is allowed from User Interface to Create Bank Branches in any
combination of the following

Bank Name = <BANK_1>  --- Branch Name = <BANK_BRANCH_1> --- Branch Number = NULL

Bank Name = <BANK_1>  --- Branch Name = <BANK_BRANCH_1> --- Branch Number = <BANK_BRANCH_NUM_1>

Bank Name = <BANK_1>  --- Branch Name = <BANK_BRANCH_1> --- Branch Number = <BANK_BRANCH_NUM_2>

However, the User is using the API to Create the Branches and before Creation they need to verify if the branch exists.

Currently the application is reporting that the Branch Exists based upon only the Branch Name.

It should be considering uniqueness based upon BOTH Branch Name and Branch Number.

Example

It should be Possible to have for <BANK> Branches in <BRANCH> with the same Branch Name but different Branch Numbers.
