Adhering to these details will help streamline your transactions, prevent delays, and ensure funds reach the intended recipient. *** ## Key Terms Review the following key terms used throughout this document. | **Term** | **Definition** | | ------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Local Branch Code** | A unique identifier assigned to a specific bank branch within a country (e.g., a Sort Code in the UK or a BSB code in Australia). | | **Tax ID** | A unique identifier issued to individuals or businesses by a government for taxation purposes. | | **Purpose of Payment Code** | A standardized identifier used to describe the reason for a financial transaction, particularly in international wire transfers. | | **Purpose of Payment Message** | A brief, free-text description provided to explain the reason for the payment. Unlike a code, this allows for more detailed context regarding the transaction. | *** ## Using Entity Bank Details International wires require varying levels of remittance information depending on the destination country.

The following examples demonstrate how the required fields dynamically update within NetSuite based on the selected payment type and country. ::::WorkflowBlock :::WorkflowBlockItem **US Domestic Payments ** ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/MM6nC_bKbIkwCRqiFZqEu/SHjVvEmH2yim3WlfAgnyn_image.png" size="80" width="2384" height="1088" position="center" caption="Netsuite Entity Bank Details for US Domestic Payments" darkWidth="2384" darkHeight="1088" showCaption="true"} ::: :::WorkflowBlockItem **GBP International Payments** ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/MM6nC_bKbIkwCRqiFZqEu/J5l3UzFridVT3p-oCLo63_image.png" size="80" width="2170" height="1480" position="center" caption="Netsuite Entity Bank Details for GBP International Payments" darkWidth="2170" darkHeight="1480" showCaption="true"} ::: :::: *** ## Payment Requirements FISPAN supports international wire payments to 55 countries.
