Banks

Banks maintains the bank master list used by IMS financial workflows. Each bank has a numeric ID plus Arabic and English names. Authorized users can add new banks or edit the names of existing banks.

Open the screenFinancial → Banks.

Screen layout

The left side lists the configured banks. Selecting a bank loads its details on the right. The toolbar provides New and Edit.

FieldPurpose

Add a bank

  1. Click New.
  2. Enter a unique numeric ID.
  3. Enter the bank Name. The Arabic name can also be entered.
  4. Click Save.

IMS checks that the ID is not already assigned and requires the English bank name before saving. After a successful save, the new bank is selected in the list and the action is recorded in the IMS audit log.

Edit a bank

  1. Select the bank from the list.
  2. Click Edit.
  3. Change the Arabic and/or English name.
  4. Click Save.

The bank ID remains fixed while editing. Clicking Cancel abandons the current edit and reloads the selected bank.

Master-data ruleUse a stable bank ID and change only the display names when a naming correction is required. The ID is the persistent code used by the rest of the system.

Permission

Creating or editing banks is permission-controlled. Users without the applicable maintenance permission can view the bank list but cannot use New or Edit.
