3. Tasks description
3.1. I (Original requestor, CAD, CAM, Treasury…) request a modification of a bank account.
Any person having the view on a bank account (original requestor, CAD, CAM, Treasury…) can request a modification to a specific bank account. To this purpose, use the AODOCS workflow and advance the status to 5.1-Modification request and explain - in the description field - the nature of the change request.
Different kinds of modification can be requested. Below are some examples:
Example of modification request | |
Open a new currency compartiment in an existing multi-currency account | If validated, TSU will duplicate the existing record and add the new currency. Request to the bank to add this new account/currency into the cash-pooling, Swiftnet & EBS. |
Maintenance of virtual bank accounts linked to a main account. | If the virtual account generates bank statement, then it should be treated as a new bank account for the setup in system (including virtual cash pooling on main bank account). If not -only a reference in the main account bank statement - then no need. The virtual account should still be communicated to A/R team for them to setup the auto matching with A/R invoices. |
Change of owner of the bank account | In case of M&A or LER, a bank account could be transferred from one Group entity to another Group entity. |
Change of bank name or swift | Please provide the new bank account certificate and TSU will change the details accordingly. Preferred channel for communication is a modification request in AODOCS, or a BMC Helix ticket. |
Modification in cash pooling (add, remove, change of structure) | Tax validation might be needed if a material change in the CashPooling structure is in place. Implementation is the responsibility of TSU. IT & Accounting need to be informed for setup. |
Modification in connectivity (Swift, Fides, Banking Online portal) | Implementation under the responsibility of TSU. IT & Accounting need to be informed for setup. |
Change of legal Representant / Power of Attorney / List of signatories | See next section 1.3 Update of Power of Attorney (POA) and/or authorized signatories and 1.4 KYC renewal |
Other change in AODOCS F Finance Legal Entities Management | Such as ERP, % of ownership, CAD, CAM… TSU can easily update the bank account by deleting the field “Old company name”. It will trigger a script that will update relevant fields from AODOCS F Finance Legal Entities Management. |
