R12: AP/IBY: Enhancement Request: Unable To Directly Share/Associate an Existing Supplier Bank Account While Creating a New Supplier (Doc ID 2043678.1)

Last updated on APRIL 04, 2025

Goal

The user is unable to directly add an additional Account Owner to the existing setup of supplier bank account number while entering a new supplier.

At present, the user must first create the new supplier, and then navigate to the existing supplier that is currently the Account Owner of the supplier bank account that is to be shared.  There the user can do an Add Account Owner action, after which the user has to navigate back to the new supplier and then do the Add Bank Account action to create the desired bank account Assignment(s) to the new supplier / site(s).  Often the user who is entering the new supplier will also need to take the additional step of running a search in the Search Supplier Bank Account Assignment screen to identify the supplier that is the current Account Owner of the bank account number in question.

The process would be significantly streamlined if functionality was available for the user to find the existing bank account and add the Account Owner and the Assignment(s) all without leaving the setup screen for the newly created supplier.  Corresponding functionality is available to the user on 11i, but is not available on R12.
