Please give me the required Suggestions.

Answer

By assigning partner bank types to each vendor bank account, you can easily pay vendors who have multiple banks.
To meet this payment requirement, you need to setup partner bank types in the vendor master record so you can select the bank to which you want to make the payment.
1.Go to transaction FK01 to create the vendor master record or FK02 to change the record.
2. Go to payment transactions screen in the GENERAL DATA tab.
3.Enter the various bank accounts of the vendor.
4.enter unique keys for each bank in the PARTNER BANK TYPE column, which is denoted BNKT. (EXAMPLE - HB1,HB2(KEYS)).

when you are creating the invoice using either transaction FB60 for direct invoices or MIRO for purchasing invoices. when you have entered the details as usual, go to the PAYMENT TAB. In the PART. BANK field,you can specify which of the partner bank types entered in the vendor master record you want to use.
